As far as I am concerned, today’s
photo is totally about the water blur—if it is not, I spent a lot of time and
frames trying to get exactly what I wanted! I wanted the water to look very soft so that it would
contrast with the hard, jagged edges of the rocks.
I forgot my neutral density filter,
so I had to reduce my ISO to 50 and my f-stop to 22 in order to get the shutter
speed down to ½ of a second.
Enjoy.
Camera settings: Nikon D4, 28-70mm
f/2.8 at 70mm, ISO 50 (Lo1), f/22 at 1/2th of a second on a tripod.
Post Processing:
Lightroom 5—applied Nikon
Standard preset, set white and black points, added clarity, sharpness and
vibrance and did some dodging and burning.
A little too much water blur for me.

Seems like a lot of the water is blown-out. It is distracting.

I like it. The contrast of the water with the rocks is effective.

The water seems to have a blue tint. What causes that? I like the extreme blur that you caused.
