I second everyone above Tom. I have a question. Do you remember the shutter speeds? Did the water turn out so wonderful because of the HDR or the length of time of exposure??? Two photos in one day that I have to have for my very own. Gold Star and Best of for both Just Yummy. Sharon

Thank you jopoloco for the great comment my friend. :)

Gracias, por tu visita y comentario MLVargas. I'm glad you like it. :)

Very pleased with your words Don. This place is a little magical. :)

The answer to both questions Sharon is yes. :) It is both the shutter speeds and the combination into an HDR that gives the water that wonderful look. To me it can be far more pleasing and detailed than a single shot long exposure. Especially for moving water. The aperture was F/16(the sweet spot for this lens), ISO at 100 and three exposures at 1/8s, 1/4s and 1/2s. Not that long but enough to get motion and wave detail. I had the exposure comp set to -0.7 EV since I tend to lean to the dark side. :) Thank you so much for your appreciation and for the GS and Best of.

Best regards to all,

Tom

Thanks Tom. Now I just have to go and find a stream out here in the hot, arid desert. Thanks, I lean to the dark side too. Sharon

I keep coming back to this one Tom. You should put together a website where people can go and purchase some of your prints. I want this one very badly. ~~WCSharon~~

I have been wanting to set up a personal photography site for some time now Sharon. My wife has encouraged me to do just that a number of times but various things have gotten in the way. Your urging has encouraged me that it's time to do it. :) Thank you for the much needed push. I would be more than happy to get you a print made of this. I'll let you know soon what the particulars are.

Thanks again and have a great 4th,

Tom
