@ilovelenses Thank you for your kind comment and for asking, how I did it. I just saw, that I lost the exif data upon saving. I used a tripod, long shutter speed and a small aperture. As it was bright day light (although not sunny) I used a 8x neutral density filter, so the picture would not be over exposed. It was a bit tricky, as I had to place the tripod in the water and the flow caused vibration. Also every time a lil' splash hit the leaf, it was blurry on the image. I needed 16 tries (15 errors), to find the right blend of exposure, f/stop with the filter, to get the lucky one. Hope this helps, if not, jsut get in touch with me, I will gladly help.
