Tried the opposite of my normal approach to flowing water, freeze the motion (1/500th) and capture all the detail of the splashes. This is one section of Woolshed Falls near Beechworth, Victoria, Australia.

Enjoy.

Mikel.

Dunno if I'd freeze, but I'd certainly shiver for a moment.. ;-)

Mikel, I like the way you have the flowing (well, untill you froze it, ha ha) water spilling throughout the frame. Nice stop-motion effect.. I might've gone a bit faster, though, maybe to 1/800 or 1/1000 to make those drops nice 'n crisp! The scene looks a little shadowy, which is pleasant on the eyes.. but I'm thinking maybe it could've been a bit brighter? Maybe some fill light?

Nice change from the typical, flowing water. Good color and composition.

Excellent. That's why it is so hard for me to make choices sometimes, I like both approaches. Full of energy and details.
