Landscape Muddy waters

Muddy waters · 06:29 PM

Pun intended for the great blues singer. Anyway, it looks like I need a polarizer, which I failed to buy, thinking I did not need one. I shot quite few images at the Forks of the Credit River of patterns of moving water. They looked spectacular on the back of the screen, I guess because of the high contrast. What I got back was all these muddy, foggy looking images, created by the moving specular light, which I could have removed to a great extent with a Polarizer. Live and learn, folks.

Just gorgeous JMR. I love it.
Perfect exposure, perfect exposure time, great framing.
It's a wall painting.

Thanks Ash. It does look a bit surreal. It was my last picture of the day at the river.

Strikes a chord - actually three chords (I-IV-I-V-IV-I-V7) (ho, ho, ho) - with me. Nice shot, JIMBO.

Hey Dave, if it keeps me out of the doctor's office I am all for it!

Just added two more, if anyone cares to see. The last is not a double exposure or an Orton, but a simple camera movement exposure. I like the painterly results.

Well done JMR.
#2 is in classic style, beautiful.
#3 is a little dizzying.

Thanks for your candid remarks Ash. Perhaps I have grown too attached to some images. No 3 was a long exposure of about 8 or more secs, so I let it record for about 3 secs and then did little circles with the camera. Doesn't always produce good results but it looks great on landscapes where the light is dim.

These are great images JMR but the second and last one are outstanding. Thanks for posting them.
