Calming Chill


Photo by: Brooke Adams

I took this photo for a review assignment for fast shutter speed. I have this fountain on my deck, and I thought it would make an interesting subject. In order to get the crisp action, my shutter speed was set to 1/2000. I love how detailed the water is, and my use of rule of thirds. I used a levels adjustment and some sharpening in Photoshop to make this photo pop

This picture is really well done! You did a great job keeping the water in focus, and using the rule of thirds!

This is amazing! The water is perfectly in focus, and the surrounding water looks unreal. The background is out of focus which really draws attention to the water. Awesome rule of thirds, too. By far one of my favorite photos posted.

You know.. Water is one of the most beautiful elements and you caught this perfectly. I love how the water is more in focus compared to the other items and it really sticks out!

The water is so clear, crisp, and feels like you could just reach out and touch it. I love the brightness and the color it gives. I also enjoy that it’s not something just centered, but a little off to the side. I also like how the background isn’t focused, really draws my eye to it.
