Fun in The Sun
Just enjoying the sun and thought I'd have some fun with the water coming over Devil's Den dam. What else am I going to do waiting on the green to appear?

The fast shutter really freezes the water in mid air. I'm kinda waiting for the green also.

I like your composition, Glenn, but the bright sun isn't doing you any favors here. Still a refreshing shot of beautiful clean water. I think it might have been nice to have seen more of the bg though. Thanks for posting!

Yes, I see a few things that take away from this. It was mostly just to have fun but I must say I like freezing waterfalls even if the rest of the world likes them smooth and blurred. And since I like that, I feel that I should explore that until I find a way to make it work. I guess I need to get serious about it if I'm going to post. I do appreciate your comments.

Boy that is some nice clean water. It is kind of nice to see the water frozen in time because we all tend to blur the motion. Glad you're getting out Glenn! :smile:
