This is at the end of the shuttle line, and about a one mile walk up the riverwalk. I parked myself on a rock in the middle of the river.

This about half a mile closer to the shuttle stop, facing down canyon.

Hey Waxy,

You lucky bugger

Looks like a great spot, I really love the first one.

Great work.

David

Wow Sid

Three gorgeous shots

***ian408*** · May-16-2006, 04:50 AM #6

The first is beautiful. The river walk is one of the nicest walks in the park.

Gorgeous!!

Stuck here in this large conference room, I'm ultimately green with envy!

**wxwax** · May-16-2006, 05:35 AM #8

Thanks, guys. Zion's a pretty cool place. Though I'm sure in the right hands, doc's conference room would look as nice.

Is that a dare?

(I'd try if I didn't think the shutter would wake everyone up

)

Sid,

I likee! I love the long exposure to blur the water. I don't suppose you have a comparison photo of number two with a short exposure? The sun reflecting off the water could have its own appeal.

I sure wish I was there.

BTW, and completely off topic, are you a Treb builder? "Catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam"

Thanks,

Time to pull out the unobtrusive 70-200 for some quiet portraits.

You did remember to light the room with a few Alien Bees, right

Ziggy, the original is a composite of three shots.

Here's a quick, rough treatment of a single shot, showing what you're asking for. I see your point about the water. Without rocks, the smoothing of an ND filter isn't necessarily desirable.

And no, I don't build trebuchets!

Beautiful Sid, I truly am envious I wasn't able to get there...
