Waterfall, a photo from Guarda, North

Photographer's Note

Everywhere I turned I saw water flowing downhill; it was a shame to waste such an opportunity. The sky was overcastted all weekend, the perfect light for some cascade shots, and the green moss on the rocks was glowing, as the light of the mid morning was hitting them. In a precarious balance, I placed the tripod a got a nice slow shutter speed. I just wished those leaves in the bottom right were bigger, but I like the shot anyway�hope you like it too.

Good use of the wide angle here Joao. The misty look of the water looks great, and i also love the variety of greens that you've captured.

Ola Joao!

Lovely cascading result and of course lovely motive at all.
For me the pov and the angle work fine.
The eyecathing point in addition is the green moss.

Well done
Sakis

Hello Joao,

I see that you appreciate the cascades. I like particularly this one because the exposure is well controlled and the colors are beautiful. If you can and for the next one, I suggest that you increase the angle of sight.
Happy new year,

Christophe

I really love the colours here. I wish my country had so much water flowing and green areas moist and livley. For some reason i am really drawn to this photo. it's so peaceful and simple.

Ol� Joao,
has utilizado un buen recurso t嶰nico para obtener esta bella imagen, ya que la velocidad de obturaci鏮 lenta te da un gran resultado est彋ico con la textura sedosa del agua de la cascada. El encuadre tambi幯 es muy inteligente y me gusta por su sencillez.
Excelente trabajo.
Un saludo,
Josep
