Buckley's Falls

First try at long exposure today. We have had a bit of rain lately so there was a fair bit of water at the Falls, it not only looked but sounded fantastic.
Thanks for your visits, comments and occasional favs. Sorry I can't seem to comment every day, but I do as often as I possibly can, I enjoy looking at everyone's wonderful photo's so much.

I love Buckley Falls, it's flowing nicely that's for sure. It looks so powerful.

@dollycreek It was lovely, no sun though. I had to stay in town after bowling, Kara had an excursion to the Art Museum so had to pick her up from the train so went to Barwon River and Buckley Falls, I did get rained on just once. hehe. Jan Juc won and play the grand final next week.

@cimes1 Thanks Carole, I liked that shot, my husband actually told me to take some photos of a bamboo hedge we have and that was what I got, the sunlight was just shining so nicely on the droplets.

@dianeburns That will be a battle of the Titans! Not many lobs either! :) Thanks for all your comments Di, I'm finding the social side tricky, being rather green with such things. Much appreciated.

@dollycreek I am finding it hard to comment each day, I just do what I can. It is a personal thing anyway Chris, there is no hard set rules, just enjoy it!

@della No Della, the day was overcast, I didn't really know what I was doing, just looked on the net how to take long exposure. I suppose I should get some ND filters.
