The power of water

[fracster]

I took these in Norway this year. I tried to capture the immense power of the water cascading from a mountain lake in the first three, to this day I don`t think I did?

This is the relative calm of the edge of the flow.

On this one I attempted to get the fallen tree to lead into the flow and captured the distant, cloud covered peaks.

This one hopefully leads you into the sheer force of the water.

These were taken on the back roads in the Western Fjords.

This last one was taken in Straumensand, north of the Arctic circle.The freshwater from the fjords did battle twice daily with the seawater,fighting it out between two headlands.Hopefully you get the gist of the maelstroms that the converging waters created.

Comments and criticism more than welcome.....

Excellent shots.

No.3 certainly shows the extreme force of the water - well captured

To be quite honest with you, I think there is only one problem, and that is with the first one. I assume you wern't using a tripod? A smaller aperture would have sorted this image right out. The water is at the stage where its neither still nor properly blurred, and the rocks in the fore ground are everso slightly blurred as well, due to the short DOF. Using a tripod would have allowed a longer exposure time as a result of a smaller aperture. This would also have increased the DOF and made all the rocks in the fore ground sharper. Then spot on imho!

Of course if you were using a tripod then ignor what I just said

I did not use a tripod, you are correct.
