Congratulations to friscoron for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 5 votes - View Previous Winners
Got this shot of my senior with the waterfall. Shot at 1/10 sec handheld with a Z9 and 24-70 lens. Comments always welcome.

Very impressive for a handheld shot at that shutter speed. I certainly couldn't hold still enough to get this shot myself.

Well done! There's a danger us geeks will get too hung up on the technical challenge you conquered and miss this is a very nice Senior portrait of this young lady.

IBIS has gotten so good you have to worry more about the subject moving than your hands.
great capture

1/10 sec handheld - a risky proposition but you did great! I would probably go tripod and stack 2 shots in Photoshop to attempt the same - just because I have shaky old hands. ha

I've always been very steady. For me, it's all about getting locked down and then breathing. I'm certainly not 100% on these, so I have to chimp each time to see if I got it without any motion blur.

Thanks, Doug. I always shoot this at a fast shutter speed, so we have the water frozen as well just in case I think I've nailed it, but hadn't.

Thanks! Not sure what you mean by IBIS?

Yeah but then you have to carry a tripod around with you for a two=hour shoot in which you use it for one shot. Plus, it's fun to see how long you can hold the camera still.

In body image stabilization, it’s amazingly good

Great composition Ron!
My hands are not that steady on any hand held shots.

Great work on hand holding and finding this spot - modern IBIS is amazing, so is this shot. I might crop the top 1/4 - the railing esp. draws my eye, but then I realized the brighter rocks do too. Did you frame it so the plants behind her look like a crown? It took me a closer look to realize what it was.

Can I ask a couple of questions?
What was the location?
and
What focal length did you end up using on that zoom?
