Milcreek Canyon
Here are a few more pictures taken from Milcreek Canyon yesterday. Our dog had sooo much fun in the water. Then...just because it was soo beautiful I had to take a few pictures of the river. I thought they turned out rather nice...so...here they are. And I'm caught up with all my pictures. Finally...life's been crazy lately...I can't wait till it gets crazier and we actually close on our house. Oh YEAH!!!

On the river picture (particularly the landscape one, the first river picture posted--I LOVE it!) how long did you leave your shutter open to get that mist effect?
The next thing to do is to find a shady area and or go out as the sun is going down. Make the time as long as possible (sometimes I've had my shutter open for minutes if its getting close to no light left). That means a tripod is necessary to get the right picture.
Another thing that helps is a polarizer filter. When you turn it you'll see how areas get much darker in the river adding to additional contrast and allowing you to "overexpose" the picture a little bit and still allow it to get the details you need.
Hope this helps a bit and I'm always open to having people tag along when I shoot. I usually head out every friday and would love the company. Just let me know if if you guys would ever like to head out.
