Van--a response at last. No PS at all, except for a little cropping and the b&w conversion. The effect of the water is simply the result of using a shutter speed that's slow enough. It's a little tricky to get a really great shot (I don't consider this to be one.), but it almost always gives an interesting effect. Give it a try!

Thanks, Dottie. I never think to bring a tripod along, and that is a real limitation. I've tried both shutter priority and aperture priority. I think this was the former, but I'm not sure. I don't know if it's a "tip" or not, but I find it difficult to get just the right amount of context--rocks, limbs, and stuff--to make a good contrast to the fluidity of the water. Good luck . . . take a lot of shots!

Well George, if you haven't mastered this technique yet, you are pretty damn close cause this is stunning. I am hoping to go out & shoot some time exposures of the water soon myself. Went to a local hiking trail last week, but it was just not the best place to geta good variety of shots. If you've got any hot tips, let me know! Dottie

What shall I say? I type with one finger! thank you for your information. The pereiods (Full-stops) will from now on always be inside the quotation marks, that is if I remember putting them there and as to the question marks, I'll have to ponder. Best regards (I almost wrote remarks instead of regards), Rafi Btw, what about the commas when there is a close in parenthses?

Rafi--Ah, yes. I certainly do make many "typos." It's even more embarrassing than you know, because of my considerable scholarly and professional experience in grammar and usage. Alas, though, I never learned to type with more than two fingers! That is a persistent frustration.
In e-mails and in Usefilm comments, typos and errors abound. I put it down to the breezy informality of the electronic medium, but I don't approve, and I do try to be careful. Obviously, I need to try harder.
FYI: I'm not sure about British punctuation, but in good American English usage, periods [full-stops] and commas are ALWAYS enclosed within quotation marks. Question marks and exclamation points may be inside or outside depending on the sense of the sentence.
Regards,
George

Please excuse my being presuptuous, but I think you have a spelling mistake in you "About". You write mater and I think you mean master, Yoiu're not the only one with this kind of mistake and therefore I read everything I write twice before prssing the "add comment" bar, look in the dictionary and even then a mistake sneaks through here and there if I'm not careful. I've discovered these mistakes also in other people, whose native language is English "Abouts". Having finished my lecture, Lol, thank you for lovely coments on my "Champagne glass and reflections" and (here I just caught myself in the last momement before writing anf, as d and f are so close to each other on the keyboard) my "Isreali champagne and German made glass". I am not even sure if the full-stop should came before the quotation mark or after it. Best regards, (again I addad the e in regards after the word had been written rgards) Rafi
