[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
These cascades were a fun subject. I tired varied shutter speeds and aperture settings. Ultimately I liked the faster ones because it captured the splashes and textures better.

Greet Vincent!

Splendid formulation, very curious colours and light.
It pleases me, as you showed in movement water.
Very showy!

I congratulate realization and I greet.

The 1/5th a second shutter speed really worked nice here with the water. It is nicely blurred to show movement but all still makes a strong shape. The detail in the rock and moss is also very nice and it is a great image.

Hello Vincent,
This is a successful experiment in shutter speed. 1/5 seconds must be the ideal!
Lovely colors on the rocks and the way the lighting in entering amongst the stones!
The way you are presenting the running water is fantastic! - it seems like silk threads were put along the rocks.
Great capture!
Well done.

I like this a lot, comp and execution is great, don't like the green cast. I did a WS to show you. Technically excellent, so you get the full boat, and the color is easily changed!

Hello Vincent,
The tech settings effectively froze the water in a silky fashion. A superb isolation of the petite water falls. Beautifully framed, the rock texture adds to the image impact. Best regards.

Hello Vincent,
I enjoy viewing your images not just because of their quality but because of all the information available to help me in my own quality of work.I prefer you WS image to this one,I guess it tells you something about my left or right side of my brain thoughts:)I like the effect your 5 second exposure gives to the falling water.
