I really like that last one, the lake is so still, it's like a mirror, great stuff!

Nice color balance in the last one sir. All good shots but the last one is striking. Is that a grad filter on there or a GND from post processing. It looks like PP unless you used to grads to get the same color saturation in the lake's reflection. Please do share.

Last one is a definite keeper


2 Samuel 9:7-8, "So David said to him, “Do not fear, for I will surely show you kindness for Jonathan your father’s sake, and will restore to you all the land of Saul your grandfather; and you shall eat bread at my table continually.” Then he bowed himself, and said, “What is your servant, that you should look upon such a dead dog as I?”

Thanks for all your comments.

I used 2 NDG filters to ensure the reflection was exposed equally to the sky. Processing was levels, curves and sharpening.

Regards,

Nick

While I love all of these shots, I must confess I don't like the misty water effects, the waterfall to me looks like milk? And the other one over the rocks I think would have been amazing if the exposure wasn't so long so it could bring out some of the detail in the water?
