Finding Compositions At Buttermilk Falls

As an outdoor nature & landscape photographer, winter can be difficult to find interesting and dynamic locations. In this video, I’ll share my experience finding this location and compelling compositions. This waterfall is located on the New Jersey side of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. I’ll share some of the tools I use with the OM System. In particular, the camera’s computational feature including the Internal Live ND Filter and the Handheld High Resolution mode.

To get here I will show you my winter hike along the way on the Appalachian Trail. As I move along the trail, I’ll share some of my images. Some of the vistas along the way are breathtaking.

This is an area that I have photographed in the past. It’s know as the Zimmerman Farm. However, it’s been several years since I traveled back to this area. I shot these images shortly after the last snow storm we had. The area is still as I remember it. All of the images were shot with the Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II. Mother nature was more than cooperative this day. The light was beautiful and the textures on the buildings were amazing.

Last week we had a storm here in the North East of epic proportion. In our area we had in excess of 31 inches. We set a record snowfall, based on a 24 hour period. I wanted to get up to the Poconos to photograph in some areas I had been to in the past, but not in the winter months. I wasn’t sure what to expect since they received slightly less snow than we did. I was greeted with some beautiful weather and as such, some amazing landscapes. The following images were shot with long exposures to create the milky effect in the moving water. In all cases, the camera I used was the Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II.
