WOW! WOW! WOW!

I have seen some amazing waterfalls in my time travelling the world with my camera but Slap Pericnik is one of the finest I have seen. Its location for a start is outstanding, nestling in the valley of the Triglav National Park in the far north of Slovenia but the fact that it is a ten-minute walk from the car park and that you are able to walk behind it and look out over the gorgeous scenery in front of you is inspiring.

I wanted to capture it in a way that shows off the amazing scenery that surrounds the waterfall and so I opted to shoot a panoramic image comprising of nine vertical images, overlapping each one by around 30% and stitching them together in Photoshop CC. Thank heavens I have just purchased a high-performance laptop (Acer Predator Helios 300 for those interested) to edit my images on because nine 128MB images would have killed my previous laptop for sure.

What were the main challenges of shooting this scene?

Without a doubt, water. If it was not constantly dripping down onto the camera equipment and I from the overhanging cliff above me, it was the moisture created from the sheer force of the water hitting the rocks below at great force. The wind then carried the moisture towards me and my camera and because of that, I was required to wipe the lens after each shot.

But all the effort and patience required to capture it on camera was all worth it because for me, the waterfall and its setting needed to be shown in all its glory and shooting a panorama of nine images was the only way and the result has exceeded my expectations.
