I arrived at this place with hundreds of tourists and immediately thought… oh no! Luckily it started to rain and most of them headed back to their cars. I stuck it out. As the light of day faded, I found myself alone with a very wet waterfall, and covered in overspray. The flood lights had just come on so I knew it was time to strike as the falls were in that last shade of the evening light.

Don’t be deterred by tourists. A great way to have tourists disappear from your image is to use blur motion in camera or blending of multiple stacked images in Photoshop. Try really long exposures to start with, but you may leave remnants of some tourists if they don’t move in your frame. If you get this problem, keep taking further long exposures in the exactly the same spot and then stack the exposures in Photoshop. using the File > Automate feature. This will remove anything moving and keep everything that is static.
