I am absolutely hypnotized by water. Water of all kinds. Rivers, Oceans, Lakes, Rain...etc. I can just stare at it for embarrassing lengths of time. I think a photographer could make a living focussing his/her career on water alone. It is so beautiful and comes in so many forms and colors and moods.

This is one of my favorite pictures of water that I took a few years ago of my son jumping in a pool in mexico. The camera froze the water so perfectly and picked up the colors very well.

Heres another neat one from a resort pool in Maui a couple years ago. This one, I set the camera on the handrail of a bridge and set the shutter for 15 seconds.

I need to spend more time looking for photo opportunities. sometimes taking a picture of something somewhat average, like a boy jumping into a pool, can turn into a work of art.

Water is a great subject for photographers.

Here are some that I had laying around on photobucket.

I really liked your long exposure of the waterfall picture.

Thought I'd add a few of my favorite water photos.

I caught a nice 12" rainbow out of this hole after taking this picture:

I think that water is a huge part of why we fish.................


I would love it if you could all go back and edit your posts so we can see where all those great photos were taken.

Some already have that info though.

Thanks
