First attempts

[Vix]

Hello DPS, first i would like to apologise for not being on lately, had no working computer as had a virus wipe everything off it.

anyways i'm back now and i've been to a local national trust location called Lydford Gorge and tried my first attempts of shooting waterfalls and running water.

Hope you like them....





and a macro shot


thanks for looking and please let me know if images are too large, did try and edit the size but didn't seem to work

All very nice and the 1st very pleasant with good use of that slow shutter

Hi vix and welcome back. Bad news about the virus. These images of the waterfalls are excellent, you got that water all dreamy and soft. I do like the first one. It has the little bit of mystery about it. I just want to pop my head around and into the pool where the water is flowing into. But, both are great captures. And the dandelion macro is fantastic with great detail and colour. Great work vix and It is so nice to have you back.

Jake.

thanks guys and cheers jake.
i would say not bad if i do say so myself, always wanted to get nice pics like that of flowing water and i think i've done it, obviously need to practise more.

all 3 shots are completely un-edited as well

Very nicely done Vix. Such a nice job straight out of the camera too. I love that silky waterfall look. TNX.

Hi Vix
Nice to see you back - I had days when my internet connection was off - a real swine! Three great shots with lovely rich colors and soft flowing water. Very nice macro shot too. Well done
