Your pier placed past center in the composition does indeed make for a stronger image. Thanks for so clearly showing that.
And your lesson in Patience or luck that a foreground subject will enter the scene at the perfect moment is well worth remembering and waiting for.
Thanks Frans! |

My eternal challenge is to find foreground elements on a beach. I go for the light, the water & the color; perhaps I should have the dock anchor it more. Thanks for the tips everyone. |

Good for you for trying something new. I know nothing about IR so have no tips to offer but keep exploring! |

I find this architectural transformation more pleasing but find my eyes drawn to the bright aqua pool and the bright lights on the buildings at the top of the hillside. Using the brush in Lightroom I burned them down a tad. |

This months image was taken a year ago at ISO 500 and is within a series of images taken at various ISO/exposure lengths. The high f stop was chosen for its natural star burst effect on the dock lights, which I can only see when I zoom in.
This additional image was taken 24 minutes later at ISO 100, f22 with a 3.2 sec exposure and I think I agree with you Pierre that showing a bit of water texture is nice. |

Like the damp, moist, and cool atmospheric feel of this Rainforest image. The green moss feels deep, springy and nicely textured. The two saplings in the center back silhouetted against the mist in the distance help create a sense of depth.
The silky falls match the misty scene; I would prefer that the base pool was glassy smooth to match. And a touch of foreground subject or a sapling would ground me as I enter the scene.
In my experience, the preferred shutter speed is dependent on the individual waterfall (and how you want the image to look, of course). Some waterfalls look better with very long exposures for a silky effect (2-3 seconds or longer), others look better with a semi-slow shutter (.5-1 sec) and some look best with a fast shutter; it depends on the terrain, steepness, amount of water flowing, type of falls (cascade, sheer drop, tiered, fanned), etc. I just like to experiment with all of the different speeds when I'm photographing a falls for the first time.

Love the moody feeling of this image; pleasing balanced composition. It's all a matter of interpretation. On my monitor I prefer Glen's lighter storm clouds but with a more subtlety highlighted foreground but am distracted by the increase in the digital yellow sky. |
