Fall colors are always the best, aren’t they? And the river looks like liquid candy. The United States certainly has its share of beautiful places to take photographs of.

Gale….I feel like floating, yet wrapped by the silky-water but not overwhelmed by it, and just go with the flow where ever they want to take me… WOW…I want to be the river-nymph and live there, *L* so intense..!

I’ve just come over on Sylvie’s recommendation at Fuelmyblog …… and I’m glad I did – cheered me up no end.

I love long exposure shots of water. Fabulous shot, Gale. Not sure if you’ve seen Thomas Laupstad’s high tide shot in Norway. It’s something like 20 seconds long. The water ends up looking like fog.

Wow. Is that how you get the water to look like that? By using a longer exposure? Care to share your technique?

Beautiful! I agree with Chris … how DID you get the water like that?

I always find the proverbial “breath of fresh air” here… Thanks Gale!

Thanks everyone for all the great comments I appreciate it. I shoot all my landscape and just about everything with a tripod. It is the only way to get sharp images, then with most landscape shots you usually stop down or close the apature to a smaller setting. This gives you more depth of field or area that is in sharp focus, you also have to use longer shutter speeds. The shutter is a curtain that flips open to let light in. So if you leave it open a while from 1/4 a second for up to 30 seconds you get that cotton candy look in the water. This is often what I use on waterfall images it makes for a soft creamy effect.
Thanks again for everything.

Wow! The water effect is really great. It’s sooo shiny and silver!
Great pic Gale
P.S Reminds me of a pool of mercury!

Your images are simply breathtaking! Being from the city I can’t imagine such beauty still exists in this world. Thank you for sharing the beautiful places of our planet, places some of us can only dream of seeing in our lifetime.
