[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Well I just took this photo and am really quite happy with it. It was taken at Golitha Falls, just outside St Neot, Nr Bodmin. To my eye it has quite a peacful feel to it so I thought I would share it with you all to see what you think? It was taken a couple of hours ago, at about 11:30 so the lighting was a bit harsh but after getting up at 5 this morning to shoot the sunrise and seeing nothing but clouds thats not really a compaint! I used an ND4 filter to help slow the shutter a bit to get the silk sheen on the water and my left hand as a make shift lens hood to stop the massive lens flare. Shot as a jpg and not touched in Photoshop. I like it for the green water. Enjoy

Carlos, good question and well done for reminding me. I also used a polariser filer on this shot, and it was the polariser that managed to give me this green water, i supposed by cutting everything but the reflected green from the tree leaves above.

Hi Tom!

Can you explain me why the water has no tree or sky reflection?

It looks like something out of a fairytail.
I think a tripod could have helped here, but your creative use of your hand is perfect.
Take care,
KellEy
