Thanks Martin as said this is a new area for me but something a bit different to expand on. As said one of the photos had an exp of 13 seconds to get the effect, now if I tried that today the photo would just have been blown out. How do you get around the problem is there some sort of filter you can use to lower the amount of light comming into the camera ?.

I have been trying out using slow shutter speeds to try and get a freeze effect on the water in the two photos posted. Im new to this technique and other than having your camera set on a tripod are there any other hard and fast rules to observe. Any tips are more than welcome as any remarks good or bad on the photos.
