The Weir
I was checking a river for dippers during a lunch break a short while ago. No dippers but the water flowing over this small weir and the reflections from the sunlit bankside vegetation caught my eye so I tried experimenting with some different compositions and shutter speeds. This is actually the very first image taken . . . very different for me. I must be entering the "artistic" spell in my life. All I need to do now is give myself a french surname and cut off my ear :biggrin:

1/10th @ f11 iso 100
500mm

Thanks Matt.

You won't make any Monet doing that :biggrin:

Sorry, I'll get my coat. I couldn't even think of a Van Gough pun. Love the picture btw.
