Weekly Challenge #20 - Water
The next weekly challenge is water.

Any picture where the element 'water' is the main actor. A fountain, a water drop, a landscape water scene, anything with water on it. Just go out and be creative.

Here are the usual rules:

Final entry due around 00 GMT on Monday June 11, and I'll post the winners on Monday or Tuesday.

The rules:
1. Post ONE photo (max 800x800) as a response to THIS post.
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme. It can be colour or B&W, your choice.
3. You can offer as much or as little additional information as you wish, but I'd be interested to know the location/event/whatever being depicted.
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and chose 1 of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. The challenge runs for 7 days plus a day or so for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any camera will do but it must be a Pentax.

Tried to catch a picture of the small insects making the waves, but that proved to be difficult. :P

This image was taken after sundown last fall in Gonoga Glen. The sky was still light and retro-illuminated the leaves on the trees. It was taken with the K100D and the SMCP DA 12-24. Probably f 16 @3 sec. Exif did not transfere but will check with the original file.

Burgess Falls State Park--Lower Falls

Low Water levels this Spring allowed me to get this shot of Burgess Falls in Eastern Tennessee. During a average spring, the falls incompases much of the bowl where I am standing for the shot.

Water is a tough one for me, since most of my pic's are taken at lakes and rivers
I just have too many to choose from.

So I'm going with this one this time.
