    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Awesome Andy! The water in the first one is sooo dramatic!clap.gifclap.gifclap.gifclap.gif Very cool anticipating the needed long exposure for the water and compensating with the ND filter so that you would not blow out the sky.thumb.gif

    thank you very much, susan :D though i should say, the nd filter i used was not graduated, so it's only effect was to slow the water down and blur it :D the exposure i managed through proper raw conversion..

    thanks for looking, commenting and stopping by!

    Flowing water is one of those things I really like. You need about 1/2 second exposure to get a good blend, and 2-3 seconds make it look "foggy."

    It should go without saying, of course, that a tripod is mandatory for this. I saw a lot of people trying to take pictures over the weekend without a tripod... it's 100% certain your landscape images will suffer greatly without one, because you lose so much flexibility in what you can do. When I started shooting from a tripod, the percentage of my shots that I really liked went from maybe 1 in 200 to 1 in 50, which ain't bad mwink.gif
    A good, heavy tripod is one of the finest optical improvements you can buy for your lenses. Modest lenses, used properly on a tripod, will frequently outperform expensive lenses that are heand held. And good tripod is a joy forever.:):

    Very nice work Andy!
