Sonhos de Veludo (Velvet Dreams) Photo

Photographer’s Note

I've taken this one in a place called Cabreia near from a village called Sever do Vouga!
It'a a natural paradise, a little arranged
to increase turism.
I've been there a few times and I always find diferent thing to takes pictures of. I'll show you a litle more in the next fotos.

Very nice shot. I like the contrast between the soft water and the crisp rocks. Very sharp picture. Maybe it would be nice to see some more of the surroundings?

I like your shot just as it is, in fact it has quite some abstact potential Artur. For instance, the white streams easily work as teeth for a fish together with the dark spot on the right...

And welcome to TE! Looking forward to see more of your work!

Very nice picture, works well even without surroundings. Probably this tight view is better than a wider one.

nice comp of the pic. I just got back from Korea a few weeks ago and took allot of waterfall pics as well. I wounder what a 4 sec exposer would have resulted in? maybe saturate the color a little bit more?

Very good. The long exposure contributes to a perfect waterfall pic.

Magnifique. Temps d'exposition idéal. Beaucoup de douceur et de calme se dégagent. Un régal.
Merci

Pour une première photo déposée j’avoue que ce n'est pas la plus déplaisante à mes yeux. J'aime cette clarté et ces couleurs, et cet effet de cascade et de toute beauté super travail.

Well composed but above all a perfect shutter time!

wchen (269) 2003-11-13 12:10

The contrasting textures of rock and water fall is well captured in the photo.

Motrem (2392) 2003-11-13 13:10

Beautiful composition, the water which pours is magic, your technique is enviable. Bravo!

Very nice. I very much like the details you've given - the f-stop, the exposure, and the fact it was on a tripod.

I'm looking forward to the next picture!

Bem-vindo ao TE!

Excelente foto inicial! A suavidade é fantástica, tal como os reflexos, composição, texturas e cores.

Nice job, Arthur! I was always interested in making photos with longer time exposure ... especially with water flow! This photo is great! :)

The f-stop and speed has been calculated wonderfully to capture the movement of this waterfall.
Glad to see another Pentax Spotmatic F photographer. I'd love to see your other photos, please submit them.

The quality of the image is stunning. The contrast between the falls and the rocks is still present despite a slow shutter speed. Really well done.

I hadn't seen this one, better than the other one. Very nice.

Rhiannon (1726) 2003-11-18 8:00

Nothing more to add, really.
Just had to tell you this picture is perfect in my opinion. Truly beautiful!
