I just happen to have that shot with the blur!!:D It's the one I meant to use in the first place, but I uploaded the wrong one. SO, here is virtually the same shot with blur.
Thanks for looking and replying.

WOW!!! That's a nice shot. I have trouble getting my colors to look bright and crisp. The Canon Powershot S1 only has 3.2 megapixels and a small processor. I think that may be why. Any way, I'm jealous of you guys and gals with the big cameras!!!:D So all of you keep those water pictures coming too.

Okay, I'll add one to this thread. I've seen some extremely cool water shots on this forum, and mine doesn't quite measure up, but I'll post it anyway.

I'm an amatuer, but that looks like a great shot to me. I like waterfall pictures a lot and you are right, there have been some really good ones on this forum. Thanks for looking and for your post.

thats a nice shot! all photographers, may they be pro or amateur went through a learning process.. so it doesnt hurt to show others what you got, who knows maybe you'll learn from them or they might learn from you! :D keep shooting!

Thanks! This was one of my very first attempts, taken last fall. I'm patiently waiting for spring to come so I can go back up there and try again using the info I've gained on this forum.

Here are a few of mine before I went digital. Havn't got to shoot to many waterfalls in a while.

Thanks for the advice. I'm really new at this and was just lookingfor somewhere to put the blame!! :lol: (Hehe) But you can bet I'll keep trying. This photography thing has helped me a lot with my lack of patience, but I'm still pretty much a "I want it look right RIGHT NOW" type of guy. But, I'm learning. Thanks again.
