Brook's Falls the Clean Edge

[Andrew McLachlan]

In the first post Steve mentioned a liking for a cleaner bottom edge. Here is the version I shot with a cleaner bottom edge. I did forget to make a note of the specs before shutting down my photo computer, but this one was also shot with the 12-24mm lens at about 20-30 seconds. I'll chime in tomorrow with the exact specs.

This is a single capture with a little shadow/highlight applied.

Look forward to comments.

Andrew - while I like this and your water blur is once again great, I still prefer your 2nd post. For me the fg rocks covered with pine needles and leaves add an interesting element.

TFS,
Rachel

I like this too but agree with Rachel that the 2nd post is the strongest of the three versions posted.

Hi Buddy, have to agree with the others' comments. Also, there is a distinct halo around the rocks in the middle of the water.

The water is flowing into nothingness.

Thanks Rachel, Robert and Jay, much appreciated! The other version is my favorite from here also. This one was shot at f16 @ 6 seconds at ISO 100.

Without considering the other versions you posted this image is still a strong one. I like the detail in the rocks and trees. The flow of the water guides my eye. The rock UR anchors the image.
