"Hobbit's Hidden Treasure"

"Hobbit's Hidden Treasure"

I captured this image while visiting Multnomah Falls last Friday. You'll have to watch the "Technique Tuesday" below to see how I exposed the shot to get the water to blur. It was this motion blur together with the water's misty spray in the bright late morning sun which provided a hint of mystery to the shot. A tweak or two in Lightroom finished the image's treatment weaving the colors and textures into their artistic presentation. Camera specs; Canon 5D Mark II fitted with 24-105mm IS lens at 24mm, F22 @ 1/3 second (handheld), ISO 50. Enjoy! -David
