Water flow

[kat]

I will be going back to this spot, hopefully with my new ND filter ( I ordered a 4..still think I should of added the 8 too :wall-an:)

Anyways..I want to know if this "flow" looks alright.

How will the ND filter adjust this photo? Will shadows be darker? I hope this isn't silly to ask :o

I like it, it's an elegant abstract. Although I think with a longer exposure (to accentuate the water flow) it would be really perfect.

As far as I know, the ND filter is neutral in density and color so the ratio between the highlights and the shadows will be the same. :)

As said above the ND shouldn't adjust colours at all. Shadows ... well that depends on what you do. You'll be using slower shutter speeds to get the water effect you wish so the shadows could be lighter depending.

I quite like this image but I'm finding the whole left side a bit too dark.

Yes, it was very dark. Deep in the shade and I didn't use a flash. The rock is actually in hdr and the rest is as the shot was taken. I have to really start using my flash and not be scared of it!!!

Feel free to flash as much as you want Kat ... we won't mind at all ;) http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p137/diedye/Humor/smiley_flasher.gif

And just to play devils advocate ... I LOVE the darkness you left in this photo ... I think dark areas are needed sometimes. I need to learn to keep dark in my shots sometimes instead of processing it out too much. Darkness is a mood too ... a feel ... a contrast to the light. Sometimes it belongs.
