Mighty Flow
by Nigelk
Inspired by Bill Ward's article I've had a play with photographing water at different shutter speeds and looking for patterns and form.
Living in Suffolk there is not much in the way of interesting flowing water so I started with water dripping into a water butt in the garden, the photographs of which could at best be described as interesting. We do have a small steam flowing through our property but as said being flat Suffolk there is barely a ripple. I wandered further down steam and could not believe my luck a tree has fallen across the steam creating a very cluttered and very small but interesting area of water movement. The posted pic is one of my better efforts.
It was fun to have a play and I look forward to doing more when I visit areas with faster rivers, I also have the sea not a long drive away.

I like that a lot. Unusual. I am not a massive fan of milky water. I do love Bill's images. But it's not just water, it's the colors, the framing. This is a cool effect

I was inspired by Bill Ward myself and posted mine a few days ago. This is really nice

I've just been and had a look, yours is also very nice. I found myself focusing on smaller and smaller pieces of water, seeing patterns within patterns.

Bags of potential in this place. Bags of interest in this photo too.
