Day One Hundred and Thirty Eight - Fast Flowing Creek


More rain, and the creeks are running full of brown, swirling water. I'm hoping this might spark a little debate - the photo has been created by combining two virtually identical shots of the creek. One was taken on a fast shutter speed, freezing the spray of the water, the other on a slow shutter, blurring the brown water and the green reflections from the trees. To combine them I took the high tones from one image (the white spray) and a little of the shadow detail, and laid it over the backgound of the blurred image. So, today is relying heavily on Photoshop!

  1. Right - I am struggling. looked at this for some time and Possitives - I don't mind photoshopping but thats just my view / cant see the join, so good job / great colours and textures and change of speed. Negatives - Don't like the way all the action is in the top third, cant get away from this. Win (in critical mode)
