Taken at the Historical District in Columbus, Ga. I loved the lines and how soothing the water sounded. I could not help but wonder what state of meditation the unknown man was in while the water flowed over the falls and arched over the walkway. He never moved as if he was in a deep state of reflection.
There's water all over the place in this. It would be a fun place to visit. What i like about the composition is if you take a casual look, there are only four streams on the right of the frame and five on the left, but looking closer, I can see five fountainheads in the water. Btw, after you left someone came to waken the man but, alas....
This is good Scott. It's amazing how rich the colors turn out when you have that long of an exposure. Also (as someone else commented), I'm amazed that the guy stayed still for 4 secs! I really like the composition and the balance you found with such a varied background. Nice job.
This is great Scott and to think you didn't even use a ND filter! Great job man. You should try to take a shot similar to this one but with someone blurred as they're walking through the arches :) Just a thought.
I like it. How did you do it?..The 4 sec exposure, I mean.
I set my camera to TV @4 sec to get the flow of the water. Had to set the amp. to f/32 to keep from overexposing the photograph. It was still day light when I took the picture. You can see the sun set colors on the columns of the buildings at the right top.
Interesting...a bit busy perhaps (not your fault - just a lot to look at). The water arch's look like steel rods or something - that's cool.
What does it look like from the other end, facing the direction you were shooting from? Do they light this up at night? What's it look like facing up from the sidewalk?
A fun place to visit with a camera for sure. Nice capture.
This is excellent. I'd love to be able to take shots like this. Regarding the guy in the corner, its good to see he can sit still for longer than 4 seconds. ;-)
Nice photo. The only thing I find displeasing is the guy in the upper left. Just doesn't fit in my eye. Other than that, nice composition, lighting use and shutter control. I like the balance between the red on top and brighter green on bottom.
