Italy Cascate di Fanes
There are not a lot of waterfalls that are worth mentioning in the Dolomites and the Cascate di Fanes make the list.
There are two waterfalls, the upper and the lower one. You can get behind the upper one for the best angels.

Photography Tips
For long exposures a tripod and filters can come in handy. As there is a lot of spray a microfiber cloth is strongly recommended.

Travel Information
Parking is free but there are not a, lot of places. Getting to the falls is not easy. First you need to walk 3.2k to get to the beginning of the Via Ferrata Giovanni Barbara. You have to take the first 70m of the Via Ferrata, which is absolutely no problem without the appropriate gear.
After taking photos of the upper falls, you can go back the same way.
Or you continue the Via ferrata down to the lower falls. For this part I definitely recommend Via-Ferrata-gear. The maximum difficulty is B, but the drops are steep and deep.
