Still water

[Leon]

right then Ladies and err.....Male persons 

 

 

 

very slight PP like contrast and straightening, both were taken from in the water on slippy rocks using a ND4 filter and long exposure (10 seconds I think)

not to everyones taste but I like muchly

I think I'd have preferred a greater sense of moving water in the first shot? Which otherwise is lovely - all that gorgeous green! I DO actually get a sense of moving water in the second shot, especially at the top half of the weir.

Liking both but prefer 2nd due to the fallen tree across the frame on the top pic although the green colour on the still water is very nice

You  have made a nice job of capturing these and making them look so serence..

[Martyn]

Nice work Leon, #1 is my favourite because of the colour in the water. I really don't mind the water in long exposures like that!

I did think of dragging it out of frame but left it, thought It would add to the forest scene.

Good amount of motion captured.

A nice composition for both 'shots', but like Chris, I prefer to see water as I see it, and not 'milky', for want of a better word.

 

There seems to be a great leaning towards 'milky water' shots these days, which to me is more artistic (as in a painting) than photographic.

 

However, 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder', and if we all liked the same things, it would be a very boring world, so each to his own.

Shot 1 works best for me - the green foreground looks very nice.

 

It really needs the larger version view to be fully appreciated.

Doing a catch up here, Leon, No1 for me because of the colour of the water, and the detail in the rocks.
