[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is actually one of my first pictures taken. I experimented with the camera and found out how to work the time value control. Actually i dont think the result was too bad, so when I found it in my folders, I thought - why not share it?

This little stream can be found on the way to the Jonstein Mountain (1344m) in the county of Jondal, Hardanger. This route was also used long ago by Christian pilgrims travelling from all over western Norway to the Røldal Stave Church. The church was said to be housing to a wooden cross with healing powers. It was a long tough journey for the pilgrimmers, and part of the route is restored today and used by hikers and historic groups.

PP: Sharpening and saturation
I know that the brightest areas of the stream are somewhat overexposed - but this was before I learned the use of histograms and RAW-format:)

Hello Torbjørn,
Pleasant composition!
I like the bending direction of the waterflow, adding dynamics to the capture...
Well balanced, good strong colours and fine sharp details!
Greetings,

Hi Torbjorn,
Excellent work on the slow shutter speed. As Pablo mentioned, the POV and composition are perfect and the way the water bends through the scenery adds a great dynamic. Great strong colors and good sharpness. I love the foggy part on the top of the photo.
TFS,
Niek

Nice work Torbjorn,
Very well composed vertical frame with good color, light, DOF, and detail. Effective use of 1/4th sec to create this pleasing visual effect.
Well done!
