Fluid...both definitions

I seriously took so many "idea" shots, it was hard to decide which one to post. If you want to see my other choices, please click HERE.



This was taken off of the rock waterfall we have in our backyard. It, to me anyway, shouts FLUID, both in the liquid form and movement. SOOC, just added border in Photoshop. CC welcome.

This looks fantastic! It shows the water motion and details on the rock. I like the angle and how close you got. I think it is one of my favorites so far!

I just looked at your blog and Melanie, girl, you are AWESOME, my jaw was/is hanging on the floor!!!! All of your pictures are so amazing, you're fab! I'd have the hardest time choosing a favorite one, but i'd agree with you, this is my favorite! great job!

love it, love it, love it!!!

man, your pictures from this water challenge could totally go one one of those motivational posters :)

Melanie said...

Thanks guys! Your kind words are so much needed and appreciated! I am actually very proud of this challenge b/c (thanks A MILLION to Mindy's tutorial) I shot everything on MANUAL. I don't ever shoot on complete auto, but the only mode I could really get some decent shots on was Aperture, so it was what I used. I really LOVE playing with shutter speeds and ISO and Ap, because you really can get the "look" you're aiming for without using a editing program.

So glad I joined this blog filled with so much wisdom, advice, honesty and AWESOME photographers!!
