Challenge: Rivers & Streams (Advanced Editing VI ("Time Lapse")) Collection: Places Camera: Nikon D200 Lens: Tokina AF 12-24mm f/4.0 AT-X Pro DX Location: Lorton, VA Date: Jan 8, 2008 Aperture: f/20 ISO: 200 Shutter: 1/13 Galleries: Nature, Water Date Uploaded: Jan 8, 2008

I was fascinated by the pattern the water made in this stream as it went over that little bunch of leaves. Decided to try a long exposure so I propped the camera on a rock *in* the stream. The D200 did not drown :-) I'm very happy with all the cool patterns I got in the image, the diagonal composition following the flow downward, and the smoothness of the motion with a little texture here and there where the water is spraying.
PP - converted from RAW 3x (light, normal, dark), merged with HDR, cropped, burnt bits of rocks and some of the water, increased saturation and contrast, added border, resized, sharpened. |

is it possible that the water is slightly over saturated? |

Nice composiiton, maybe a bit too blue? The rocks all seem to have a blue cast to them. |

Great colour in the water, that doesn't overwhelm the rocks :) |

Very interesting, I like how the water flows up and over the leaf. |

I like this a lot. You can almost picture the rest of the stream. |

If you had a slightly wider field of view you would probably have been able to do a longer shutter and get some "milkiness" from this photo. But I do like that you can see the leaf fighting against the current. |
