[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
For the scavenger hunt "Moving water" category.

I've been struggling with this category, and this was my third attempt, different localities, different kinds of photos. This one was taken using a slow shutter speed to get the "silky" effect. I wasn't very happy with the original, and adjusted contrast, then converted to black and white, which perhaps works a bit better.

I got a very different version of this one at almost the same time, slightly different viewpoint, using a much faster shutter speed, which I will post tomorrow - I think it is a much better photo than this one!

Hi Kate.
I think that the black and white works perfectly on this picture because it emphasises all the mood and all the intensity of the water!
Congratulations.
Luci

I like this BW image, it works really well, you have captured the movement in the image really well!
