H2O

Having been inspired by @ellida's beautiful Lakeland water/ice shot yesterday I went to find our urban version and tried different settings. I wasn't expecting to find my own icicles although there are big lumps of ice floating on the river so I don't know why I was so surprised! I've used Snapseed to add what they call 'drama' and I'm quite pleased with it although I'd like a bit of steam to go with the title!!
love it, I find these shots hard to do and you've come up trumps!

Wow brilliant shot, love the motion of the water.

Yes I thought @ellida's water icicles were beautiful yesterday & you have found some too !!! Just like a bunch of jewels hanging there & that fast flowing water is frothing nicely !!! Snapfish ...I have never heard of that edit !!! I like the stone wall too Judith it is a pretty contrast to your fluid water.!

This is wonderful!
February 3rd, 2012  
That's so gorgeous. You must have got chilly taking it!
February 3rd, 2012  
this is wonderful.. ice and water, all those angles and textures = fantastic

@happypat I meant Snapseed Pat - it's an 'app' for Mac - Snapfish is a printing company like Photobox.

The icicle clump hanging from the wall is beautiful and such a contrast o the stone and plant. Almost like a big necklace. The water edit is very striking.

Fabulous! What a find and you've captured it really well. Hmmm, I've another early start on Sunday - I wonder if I can persuade Shaun ......
February 3rd, 2012  
fabulous
February 3rd, 2012  
So pretty! Excellent photo!
February 3rd, 2012  
Fantastic!
February 3rd, 2012  
Wonderful shot!
February 3rd, 2012  
Absolutely brilliant! I've got lot to learn and probably should have taken advice on what camera I bought rather than buying it on impulse. Never mind - I'll see how things stand later on in the year with my finances and probably reinvest when I've had a good think!
February 3rd, 2012  
Superb! Brilliant!stunning!

Three phase flows are very difficult to model - I'd leave out the steam. Great shot though. Lovely capture of the different kinds of movement (laminar/turbulent you know....)
February 3rd, 2012  
@fueast If you say so!! My main concern is I've blown out the highlights with the processing...but I quite like that stick in my laminars...
February 3rd, 2012  
@judithg Oh yeah nice bifurcation!
February 3rd, 2012  
@fueast I aim to please....
February 3rd, 2012  
Lots of great textures here - love the icicle shapes.
February 3rd, 2012  
Excellent! With a little luck we only get a short opportunity for shots like these. Lovely contrast here, the horizontal flow looks quite torrential whilst the falls are gentle and sharply focussed. It's 'a good 'un' as they say hereabouts.
February 3rd, 2012  
Love all the different forms of water and ice!
February 3rd, 2012  
very cool - love the icicles and water movement
February 3rd, 2012  
Fantastic! Love the contrast of the frozen water and rushing water.

Wonderful shot, Judith - great water motion!
February 4th, 2012  
beautiful :) i love the icicles. i was trying to do some water motion shots the other day but i didn't like any of them so posted something completely different.
February 4th, 2012  
Fabulous shot! Very well done, Judith! You're making the most of your cold weather with shots like this. Although I'm worried about your hens that you mentioned on Pat's post...hope they're doing alright!
February 4th, 2012  
These shots are tough for sure, but you did great!
February 4th, 2012  
Brilliant - I see clusters of diamonds and beautiful clear icicles with flowing water and beautiful brick textures! So much to see that I keep coming back. FAV!!! Is Snapseed an editing software? Is it user friendly for a non-technical person like me. I only use picnik as of now.
February 4th, 2012  
There's so much going on here! This would be just great huge on a wall to sit back and explore every inch of it.
February 4th, 2012  
Brilliant photo! I love the mixture of ice and movement :-) Keep warm!
February 4th, 2012  
nice job Judith - it says "WHOOSH"! great exposure. Great icicles!
February 4th, 2012  
It's dramatic alright! Great shot!
February 4th, 2012

February 4th, 2012  
Very dramatic and really good
February 5th, 2012  
Beautiful!
February 5th, 2012  
Amazing shot Judith!!
February 5th, 2012  
Those icicles are Amazing.
February 5th, 2012  
I love that flowing movement - very cool indeed!
February 6th, 2012  
Wow, I love how you've captured water in three completely different ways on the same picture!
February 7th, 2012  
What a spectacular shot, Judith! You certainly did find some ice.
February 8th, 2012  
I love this shot. The movement of the water is awesome.
February 11th, 2012
