On the rocks
Posted by Rui (Leiria, Portugal) on 26 November 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.
The water seems to play around the rocks
Thanks a lot for all the comments. They all mean a lot to me.
Constructive criticism is always welcome.

Such splendor and beautiful milky water, with a few sprigs of crisp green, on the rocks never looked better! :o)

@Kylie Greenan: Thanks a lot Kylie.
You know that, when I was thinking about the title, I thought about you and your famous photo for Isao's challenge "A roll of scotch" :o)

The long exposure makes the water seem like mist rising, and I like that!

@bluechameleon: :) Thanks a lot Sharon. Yes, I've already seen that you just love mist.
paulski from Muncie, IN, United States
very nice waterfall capture. if it weren't so damn flat around here, i'd get out and try to shoot some waterfall, too...
great job with the silky water effect. nicely done...

@paulski: You don't need a big waterfall to do this. Do you imagine the size of this? About 10 m2. Any small water flow it's possible to use. Just use your imagination :) Fortunatelly we have here many rivers.
Thanks a lot paulski

I see you came back with some lovely shots. That is a stunning piece of work.

@Michael Rawluk: Thank you Michael. During this absence period I didn't take almost any pictures... this was from before. I had a few still unprocessed.
António Pires from Lisbon, Portugal
Gosto muito da cena, das pedras, das plantas, excepto daquilo de que toda a gente gosta, da água que parece de plástico. Manias!

@António Pires: Bem... são gostos... e quanto a isso não há discussão possível ;)
Obrigado António pelo comentário e visita

JJ from Jersey City, United States
wow this is stunning Rui, the long exposure gives a wonderful silky feel as the water plays around the rocks, I really have to try some longer exposure shots, havent tried that yet
27 Nov 2008 12:10am
@JJ: Thanks a lot JJ. Those are my preferred... long exposures, night shots and everything that includes water :)
Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States
Wonderful in every respect. Bravo!

@Stephen Phillips: Thank you so much Steven
akarui from Kagoshima, Japan
Nice long exposure. You could have tried a lower ISO with the same other settings.
27 Nov 2008 2:03am
@akarui: This is the lowest ISO my camera supports. The ISO range from the 450D is 100-1600. I think only from the 40D is possible to use lower ISO. But anyway thanks for the tip :)
Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
A lovely nature image. I like the milky water.
