Babbling Brook

Surprised to find that the water appears to flow at a shutter speed of 1/100. Another learning experience!

A very pretty spring scene

What a beautiful location and composition Ron, water looks glass like at 1/100, wonderful image with lovely colours

[Poppo Livy]

Lovely composition Ron. Those red flowers look like some variety of Callistemon.

[Graham Budd]

Nicely composed using an interesting POV. I find these tough Ron. Slow the shutter further to get the silky water and the wind blurs the flowers.

[Tracy]

That is interesting. So picturesque and very well composed :)

This is nice…. how did you get this shot? you must have had to wade through lots of brush..

[Ron]

@pcoulson Yes, glasslike, Peter, but lacking the energy of your water shot. The price I pay for not having a tripod handy.

[Ron]

@terryliv I learn something from you every time, Terry. I just knew them as bottlebrush flowers. Unfortunately none of my bottles were empty yet too.

[Ron]

@grahambudd Yes, Graham, I was lucky enough to find the sweet spot - and fortunately there was very little wind.

@pixiemac @marmaladeskyes Thanks all for the uplifting comments. @jin1x It was nothing a Bowie knife and a few goats couldn't take care of!

[Tatiana]

Очень красивый водопад..люблю хрустальные струи воды...а цветы чудо!

[Denise (lyndemc)]

The flora and landscape features of your area are all so beautiful and fantastic photography subjects. Your pics are all so rich in color and character, this one included.

[Ron]

@simta пасибо вам Татьяна. Я очень повезло жить и быть в состоянии принимать фотографии в красивом месте. Конечно это очень дорогим местом для жизни!

[Ron]

@lyndemc Well, that's quite a compliment coming from you! Thanks (in my best red-faced manner). As I mentioned to Tatiana above, I'm blessed to be able to live in a location that offers so much rich material for photography. And yes, I do like color - that D600 makes me look better than I am.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Hey, give yourself some create too! You richly deserve it.
