Mystic River, a photo from Otago, South Island

Photographer's Note

This photo was taken near the Ohau Range of mountains in the south island of New Zealand. The sun rays looked brilliant as it tried to find its ways past the small pocket of forrest in the valley.

I used a tobacco filter to enhance the effect of the sun and a ND2 filter to achieve the effect on the falls.

Very nice shot; beautiful autumnal colours and a lovely effect from the long exposure and filter on the water.

Very nice composition and great shot of the flowing water. Not too sure about the tobacco filter but nice shot overall.

Bonjour Brendan,
Une jolie composition! J'aime les derniers rayons du soleil qui percent à travers les branches des arbres et l'effet de filé de la rivière. De belles couleurs, well done!

Hola Brendan. Una gran foto, me gusta mucho el efecto del filtro sobre la luz solar. Además la velocidad de obturación es muy buena logrando un efecto sobre el agua increible. Un trabajo muy bueno tecnicamente, felicidades.
