Stream shots

Cornflake

These are from an early hike yesterday along West Clear Creek in central Arizona. Criticism would be sincerely appreciated. I have a hard time with streams in general and with this one in particular...but I love the place, so I'll keep going even if I never figure out how to photograph it.

Hi, #2 is a beautiful shot, the sunlight hitting the water and the rocks really makes it

Cheers, Richard,

Number 2 is splendid!

Richard, John, thank you!

Evidently your persistence paid off, Don, because there are great. #2 with the sun star and light beams is especially awesome. Nice work!

Cornflake

Thanks very much, Joel. The second one required combining exposures, which I'm not very good at, so I'm pleased that people enjoy it.

Like the second. You did a good job on editing it all together.

I think #2 is excellent. The trees are a bit busy for me but the rocks in the foreground and the water make a nice combination of still and moving elements. But it is the sunlight that really makes this shot for me. Well done!

David, Lauren, thanks very much. Yes, streams like this are busy, which may be why I find it hard to photograph them.
