Not so much "running" water, but how about "crashing" water?
Lake Erie...and a storm's comin'!

Is the frosted smooth water effects from changing to 10 seconds or so??? Is that mainly what i need to change to achieve this???

 

[Pea-n-Me]

Here is my addition, I have only had the d60 for a couple of weeks, and I am just learning. I played with this a little in PSP trial, my second try at using the program. LOL Hope you like it.

sometimes it helps to have a filter of some kind( ie nd) if you are in bright light so you can get it low enough...and a tripod

Yes!

Ok, so I went on my lunch today and took some photos of a fountain near work. It did make the water look smooth and really cool but the subjects are REALLY bright!! I will post pocs when I get home since I am still at work, but do I need to change the aperture setting as well or something??? I even tried on an indoor fountain and got the same thing. What am I doing wrong???

They could be overexposed. Check to see that your ISO is set low and (when using shutter priority) pick the shutter speed that is long enough to give you the blur but not too long that it lets in too much light (camera will pick the aperture based on what shutter speed you pick; the reverse is true in aperture priority). You'll probably have to play around with it a bit (using the arrows on the S3) until you get the right combination. Try some more.

Cool...an old thread with a neat subject! Here's a few of my Disney-based running or moving water shots:

Daytime slow shutter moving water shots were taken with the assistance of an ND400 filter.

Very nice, Justin! Love these two especially:

Some from WDW and some not. I bet you can tell the difference.

The white stuff on the sand is snow! A few feet back of that shot (where I'm standing) is covered in snow.
