The "silky" waterfall pictures are done with a long exposure i believe.
That's about the extent of my knowledge really.
I'm hoping to get a D60 this week, and have a play on my week off next week, so i'll keep an eye on this thread as well

Silky water requires a tripod, remote (or self timer) and a long shutter speed. 1/2 second is long enough for fast flowing water and it about the best you'll get in daylight without Neutral Density filters.
