Change Shutter Speed on Canon 450D?

Hi all,
I love photography and i think i can take a good photo but when it comes to the technical side, well im not greatly in the know there.
What i really want to do is take a photo of water or waterfalls where the water is blurred. I shall link an example, no copyright intended just to show what sort of thing i mean

I know you have to change the shutter speed and been googling how to do that but honestly i havent got a clue and really need a step by step to do it. The lens i have is jsut the basic kit lens that came with it.

Although along with that, i am looking to buy a new lens, i love to take macro shots of flowers. however i want a good zoom lense, just one with great picture quality and a good zoom. although not to pricey, less then £300, preferably much less then that.

Right. I have the 450D and i have done a similar shot with car lights.
The ESSENTIAL thing you need here is a TRIPOD.
Once you have your camera on your tripod, you need to change the dial on the top to TV (shutter priority) then, you need to use the wheel to change the shutter speed to 30" (30 seconds)

Now, you're almost ready, but first set your camera on the timer (left arrow on the body on the camera) to 2 seconds (this is to make sure the camera doesn't wobble when you take it)

Make sure flash is off, and then you take the photo!

Happy snapping :)
