Very nice shot Shirley! The black and white is a very nice touch, along with the long exposure. Beautiful capture. Congratulations!

Thank you so very much, Derick!:)

Good job Shirley! I think Im going to have to become a better sneaker. Well I guess I have to start sneaking to get good at it hey!
Man, Soooooo many shots I've pasted up from all the damn fences here in Oklahoma!!!
Oklahoma has the least amount of street lights and the most fenced in land than anywhere I've ever been!
This is sooooo lovely Shirley, I just love the water action you captured and how the river winds
along snaking through the forest! Wonderful work my friend. Lovely view in B&W! Great choice!

Congrats Shir.

Thank you so very much, Paul!:) Well, I didn't have to climb any fences, but I felt guilty going where I shouldn't...LOL, but was DETERMINED I was going to get this shot!

Very nice shot,long exposure or PS?:)

Pablo


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/24/2006
Long exposure...Thank you, dear Pablo! I did not even have a computer at the time I took this many years ago. The only change I've made is to convert it to B&W and try to darken the bright area at the top right.:)


Orazio Minnella   {K:46645} 11/24/2006

You naughty girl, fancy, our Shirley sneaking about:) A wonderful monochromatic image with the river snaking around and disappearing diagonally out of shot. Excellent work and very thoughtfully composed and exposed. Welldone to you my dear friend. Take care of you, 'see' you again soon.......My very best wishes.....Ray;)


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/24/2006
Thank you so very much, dear Sue!:)


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/24/2006
Thank you so very much, dear Paolo!:)


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/24/2006
;)Yep...not too often I'd be that brave. Thank you so very much, dear Ray!:)


Doyle D. Chastain   {K:99839} 11/24/2006
Nice long exposure for the effect . . . but honestly . . . the best part is the 'about'!!
I picture children sneaking on tip toes, elbows bent and hands shoulder high with fingers pointed down and a head bobbing like a chicken with each silent step!! I Know it's a cartoon image but the thought of you tip-toing about in such a matter is priceless . . . and a bit funny! And you KNOW how much I appreciate humor! Really though . . . lovely image.

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/24/2006
Glad to give you a laugh...and thanks for giving me one BACK!;) Thank you so very much for your great comments, Doyle!:)


Luis  Steinberg    {K:17096} 11/24/2006
Good job...but not your best style...A kiss and my affectionate to you...LUIS


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/24/2006
Well, I do appreciate your looking and your comment, my dear Luis!:) This was taken many years ago...


Roland Lacson   {K:12214} 11/25/2006
Nice lead in on the water, a bit hot on the highlights but overall well composed. The conversion to monochrome is an excellent choice, thanks much for your comments Shirley, best wishes.


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/25/2006
Thank you so very much, Roland...and, you're welcome!:)


alberto baez duarte   {K:6792} 11/25/2006
It's a wonderful picture...the sensation of the water moving is excellent and of course something I don't usually do which is B & W photos...super..!!


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/25/2006
Thank you so very much, Alberto!:)


Valery Reznikov   {K:2736} 11/30/2006
How brave of you. Someone else’s private property and you are with a tripod! It was worth it! Valery


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140680} 11/30/2006
Thank you so very much, Valery!:)


Dave Arnold   {K:55580} 1/2/2007
Awesome long exposure... I love the black and white tones in this... and the composition you used to let the water flow from right margin to corner. But the water flow is what I like. One of these days, I will find a stream.

Dave
