I had lunch with a Nikon guy yesterday so I am not sure if I can post to a Canon thread before a 48 hour detox period.

At first I thought that you took that at lunch yesterday and was extremely jealous that my lunch breaks consist of an office building and a parking lot---then I realized I had seen it before at suzieandbob.com. LOVE this shot---it's one of my favorites on your whole site.

*Very* nice, DCG!

I occasionally have to spend a lot of time touching up haloes around dark objects, have you found an easier way?

is this the same little Niagara area you posted some from before? is that ice or rocks? very nice scenic area and a pretty shot...

wondering if anyone would know this...the front h20 is very soft, but along the actual falls it's not..wondering if anyone knows is this due to the speed of the water? i figure it's probably slower over the front rocks. not picking apart your photo, just i took some of really fast water and couldn't get it soft hardly at all, even using an nd filter and the slowest speed i could and wonder if the actual speed of the water would make it a difference and thought this might illustrate what i am trying to ask

Thanks Bob
I didn't even notice the halo around the bridge when I viewed it in full, I only noticed it after resizeing it. I will try different things but it depends on how how much time do I want to spend on it. Sometimes I'll try "replace color" in CS2, but this didn't work on this pic because it was to close in color with the sky, I will do clone and then use the blur brush on the area I just cloned, then sometimes after I clone the area and how it looks I'll use the "patch" tool in that area.
Here's what I came up with clone and patch tool.

No this the Cocheco river that runs through Dover, NH. This falls is actually a dam that was built to run power to the textile mill, they built the Mill right over the river, yes that is ice on the rocks.
He is another view of what you are asking about the water not looking soft, there are areas in the dam that the water is coming out from under a built up area of the dam and some spilling over.
Here's a couple shots from a different angle, 2nd one is cropped from the first one.

I'm not sure about this, but could it be that there is less blur in the water where it first starts to fall because there is less disturbance in the water at that point?

i don't know but when i was trying to take it before the water was really rough all over

(posted this before but can't find it now or i would have just linked to it)

and this is 1/6, f22 with an nd filter, lowest i could get it to go. it's blurry but really not that blurry . it was overcast so that is why i wondered if the speed of the water made it harder to get a better blur( all i did was convert from raw so not the best photo )

Oops! When I first posted, the second photo wasn't showing up for some reason. Hmm, I'm thinking maybe it does look the way it does because of the way the water is falling. As in, it looks really choppy. Maybe that's why? Not sure.

I belive if you had a slower shutter speed than 1/6 it would look silker, just google blurry water falls and click on images and you'll find some fast moving falls.

guess i'll have to get another nd filter to use with my nd filter if i want to get to 4 sec.

I was just playing with the umbrella & stand I got for Christmas and took these. The poor pets are always subjected to my experiments. If we have kids one day, I pity them.
