2nd of the shots for experimenting with buttons (when i could remember pages 1-6 of the manual and which one was which LOL. Aimed to play with shutter speeds to capture flow. Thanks, Lorraine

Well you have caught the movement of the water, which in turn has made a image out of something quite boring. I think you need some more rain down there as there is not enough water coming out .

This is my type of photo i think it is very close to being a really good picture. what detracts it for me is the lines in the water from the outlet pipe. if this was a little more distorted as is the water lower down i think it would be perfect. apart from that the sharpness of the bank either side and the water flow is really very good

And a wonderful use of the buttons this is too. Anything over say a third of a second is going to start to slow the water and give fantastic and often unexpected patterns in the water. To slow down the water from the outlet pipe, the fastest moving section, while holding detail else where, you'll need to add a neutral density filter.

Thank you all for taking a look, your comments and advise.

Barry, more rain? I wouldn't be able to walk along the path where i took this shot let alone see the pipe lol. I wanted a different angle, but that would have meant hijacking a boat lol.

Mel, i think from Alistairs comments, that explains how i can rectify the lines in the water.

Alistair, thank you for the link on density filters and the tips, got that noted in my little HELP book lol. Will look in the future to obtaining a few filters, once i've got the basics a little more sound.

Cheers
