Okere Falls . . .The Place Of Drifting

Liquid silk flowing
Blurred rush over smooth boulders
Sweeps below green bush

This afternoon we took the camera and the tripod for a walk.  Okere Falls was the destination to practice slow shutter speeds with rushing water.   There are three water falls on this stretch of river.  The middle one is the highest commercially rafted waterfall in the world according to the sign.  It is 7 mt high or nearly 23 ft.  The main shot is the first fall called Okere Falls.  The extra shows a raft about to go over the third water fall before the trout pool.  The second extra shows the remains of a hydro electric power station completed in 1901.  This is another popular place with tourists.  While I practiced two french woman were having a long conversation.  We saw rafters and kayakers go over the falls.  It looked fun but I wasn't tempted.
On the technical side I may need a filter to cut down the brightness of the white water. Any suggestions welcome.
