Landscape Bristol falls

**Oso** · 05-21-2011, 10:20 AM

A photo I took recently to Bristol Vermont. These are some of the first images of moving water I have taken, and am interested in any way to improve these type of images. Thanks for any help. If you click on the image, I guess it will take you to a better quality image?

This is a pretty subjective suggestion, but for my taste the water is a little over-smoothed. I'd like to see some blurring to show the motion, but not quite as much as this.

I do agree, the water seems almost 'detached'. I quite like the colours though, but think we should see more.

Like it. Nice

Nice!!! I agree with comments above. 6s is a bit longer exposure IMO, personally I like to keep within 2-4 second for the effect intended.

Short of adjusting the shutter speed depending of how much effect you want, I like everything about this picture. Nice contrast of colors and WB/temp/colors appear spot on.

Gj!
