Branches

Posted by DaveB (Exeter, United Kingdom) on 13 January 2008 in Landscape & Rural.

Yet more branches suspended in time, as water flows around them. This was taken through an ND Filter, and PS'ed to saturate the colours a little!

As always, comments are welcome, particularly those offering feedback and criticism on my images! (It's the only way I'll learn!) :)

A lovely shot, Dave. The milkiness of the water and the colors in the vegetation are really appealing.

Pouhou from Apeldoorn, Netherlands

another fine art pieces
the branch in the middle left is a little bit distracting,
otherwise I like the blurry water, the tonal of the water
well done my friend

@Pouhou: Thanks Pouhou, it is a bit messy in terms of composition, but I was going for colour and movement, so I was relatively pleased with it!

Orko from Bombay, India

Love the tones. Great shot.

Great shot, after being inspired by your photos, I tried some running river shots today. 99.9% of them overexposed or blurred, I now have a new found respect for your work, well done.

@Graham Russon: Alot of mine were aswel Graham, or just came out looking rubbish. I enjoyed playing around for a couple of hours with these shots and experimenting with my camera settings to see what works!

I definitely like your studies of branches, twigs and especially water!Have you tried the water looking like water and not like silk? I'd be interested to see such a composition.

@Japanalia: I did take a few with much shorter shutter speeds, but I do like the silky nature long exposures produce!

Steven from Montreal, Canada

I love the contrast between the stationary parts and the flowing stream!
