Capturing Water

Water...fall...ing, originally uploaded by *nectar*.

This is one of my earliest favorites on Flickr, and remains one of my all time favorites. The way in which the photographer captured the water, the spray, and the rocks creates an amazing image.

The combination of textures, the sense of movement, and the overall composition create something that has a wonderful sense of both reality and surreality.

Note the way that the upper waterfall is mostly in the leftmost third of the image, the large rocks on the right another third, and the flow from top to bottom.

I haven't had an opportunity to focus on water in all its forms yet, and can't wait. This photo is an inspiration.
