A Weir on the Wear

[Jon]

Or if anyone is familiar with the accent, "Weirs me Chair"

Not sure, again, if this is the right place, but I think its scenic :-)

Taken in Durham on the way in to work one morning - I was going to take the castle and cathedral, but as I set up they turned the lights out. I know how much people like the milky water effect so thought I'd better post it

thats quite abstract

Like the blue & white processing

The light reflections in the weir add to it and give it a lift

very eerie, but i like it :)

not sure about the blue tint ( I wondered if it is intentional or due to the white balance being out?) but I love the way the branch is offering out a hand to help the chair and I would perhaps be tempted to crop in a little to make it stronger ?

I took this one with the white balance set to try and get a blue tint - trying to hide the peaty, muddy tint to the water as much as anything. I often mess around with the white balance, but generally leave it set to cloudy

The blue tint to me is part of the abstract attraction

I usually leave the Wb on cloudy as well

Love the blue version.

I'll have to admit the blue is growing on me

much prefer the blue one, its gives the whole thing a more "arty" look
