The weather was hot and humid, it had just rained this particular morning and now the sun was starting to peak through the clouds. I was hesitant about going out on this morning but decided to put on some rain gear and go out and take some photos as I had planned. Lucky for me the rain did stop, even though the weather report was calling for an all day rain.

I love the mystical feel of this shot, the processing is superb, hazy background but a sharp contrasty foreground... and the water flows beautifully through the image. 10/10!! Silas collins @ 2009-08-23 19:16:19
A wonderful light and shade on the marvelous waters!
Excellent presentation! One @ 2009-08-23 19:41:45

This has your signature impact as an art form way beyond the already-beautiful scene you captured. Your presentation lifts the exciting characteristics way to the surface here. Ronnie 2¢ @ 2009-08-24 04:48:49
Beautiful place for Jackass and other daredevils (traduction of casse-cou?)... Technically perfect; I can smell the humidity of this charming secret place. Thank to share. Doum @ 2009-08-24 05:43:43
You captured a great feel with the mist in this shot. Nicely done John. leslie wargo @ 2009-08-24 06:02:21

This is really a fantastic shot, The light is divine with a true balance between what is Net and what is fuzzy. Philippe @ 2009-08-24 08:45:01
Nice job keeping some transparency in the flowing water. The detail in the river bed is awesome and I like the almost misty feel to the greenery in the background. Harry @ 2009-08-24 09:20:19
That's Amazing ..
and Cool ....... 2dogs2 @ 2009-08-24 09:21:53

Yes, this sort of shot is quite familiar to me of late. I do love the dark brooding nature to these sort of images. mooch @ 2009-08-24 17:12:17
Many elements here make this an accomplished shot. well done :) SAVO @ 2009-08-24 18:27:50

Those are gorgeous rock formations. Super shot, John. Michael Rawluk @ 2009-08-24 23:30:32
au moins on ne manque pas d'eau chez toi. Encore une belle image Lasiate @ 2009-08-25 00:08:03
Usted esta rodeado de unos paisajes bellisimos, unos rincones que ya me gustaria un dia poder disfrutar con mis ojos amigo, de momento tengo sus grandes fotografias que me llevan a esos lugares, casi se puede llegar a oir el agua serpenteando por el rio.
Saludos amigo mio. Alex Caballero @ 2009-08-25 01:41:40
you know what John, it kind of looks like a river of booze lol it's got a nice golden brown color to the water :) i like it very much!! Elaine- @ 2009-08-25 03:22:10
Thanks for your comment John. I remember you when i was in the Plitivice Lakes, in Croatia ( http://www.marcomarques.com/pixelpost/index.php?showimage=321 ). Amazing... like your images :) marcomarques.com @ 2009-08-25 06:07:42
WOW! I'm speechless. Love the light..the shapes and forms created by the snaking river. Absolutely stunning image...almost like a landscape painting. Marcie @ 2009-08-25 06:52:16
I like the changes in direction and the sun lit leaves. Nigel Clack @ 2009-08-25 09:14:24
This shot deserve the extensive comments! It is a WOW shot! Love the bit of haze in the background while the exposure and processing has produced a remarkable photograph. Superb work! don @ 2009-08-25 09:47:12
awesome long exposure and slow shutter for this kind of shot. so enchanting to see, i can feel the water pouring.. =] Liang @ 2009-08-25 14:57:32

really nice beautiful view and light leibovitz @ 2009-08-25 17:30:24
This shot is fantastic. Like a fairytale image Bogdan @ 2009-08-25 18:40:51
Haunting, John - you can but smell the cooling mists. A wonderful image. Stephen Phillips @ 2009-08-25 18:57:19
Not only do you capture beautiful images you transform them into something unique, that's the cool part. Bob @ 2009-08-25 20:21:48
the mist/fog really adds another element to this. almost a grain to the back. joe @ 2009-08-25 23:17:26
What a beautiful stream. Such a magical place! Great job Mike @ 2009-08-25 23:36:24
Just superb. You are a master in this field! Standley @ 2009-08-26 01:25:26
Truly magnificent photography and top notch processing. Awesome shot John. Thomas @ 2009-08-26 01:25:50
Wonderful. Much movement in picture. Joachim @ 2009-08-26 01:32:16
this stream looks surreal ! You have a very special of catching them ... namaki @ 2009-08-26 06:02:54
You can cut the heavy humidity with a knife, John...which gives this image so much appeal. Bravo to you for going out on a iffy day. Ginnie @ 2009-08-26 06:28:30
You always capture nature as it's exhaling...or so it seems. The amazing flow of this image, not only from the long exposure of the flowing water, but also in your composition, makes me feel as if I am floating.
John, stunning, as always my friend! bluechameleon @ 2009-08-26 07:49:02
Wow, what a beautiful testament to a river John -- conveys the movement of the water and highlights of the white torrents and green woodland bordering it. Kevin from OrganicPix.com @ 2009-08-26 10:11:23
thank you for your kind comment.
I´m just a beginner ... Esmeralda @ 2009-08-26 15:52:57
Your post processing work is masterful! I really enjoying looking at your photos. Brian Chen @ 2009-08-26 17:50:12
John, you know I'm a fan of your waterfalls and this one is no exception in that regard. However, that foliage in the background is superb! I am seeing it through a slight haze of water from the falls (or perhaps humidity) and I love the feeling it gives to this one. Fantastic!!! martie @ 2009-08-26 20:14:02
Un gran control de la luz para esta imagen tan impresionante y con esos colores tan suaves. Le felicito!!! Saludos, Paky @ 2009-08-26 23:03:24
very nice picture. Is this real fog? Looks a little bit as you placed it in the upper part as there is nothing in the front? Anyway it is a very mystic picture. Well done! SePp @ 2009-08-27 07:54:40
Stunning and beautiful. This photo would look great on that transparent type that are mounted in a box and then lighted from behind. Terry H. @ 2009-08-27 10:02:54
This is a masterpiece, John. Reiner @ 2009-08-27 10:25:12

Beautiful. Very mystic. Have you seen "Lost"? Looks like a clip from that show :) Fia @ 2009-08-27 10:53:14
quite magnificent...i love the misty light higher up the stream. david @ 2009-08-27 18:09:38
Perfect. Tack sharp, and yet so smooth. Luis @ 2009-08-28 10:07:40
Great shot - love the different water flows. anton @ 2009-08-28 11:34:13

awesome production of this shot john! the silky smooth water here is creating sounds to my ears. =] Liang @ 2009-08-28 17:02:50
Wow incredible photo! Dont know what to say except its great! so silky. Andy @ 2009-08-28 17:18:23
this is a cool shot John.
The curves in the stream really make your eyes go through the picture from top to bottom. The result was worth the risc of an all day rain. janko @ 2009-08-28 19:58:23
Una foto espectacular. Muy bien resuelta. Tenía mucha dificultad la captura. Muy buena edición y nitidez. Te felicito

Hey John, this is so magical. I would love to visit one of those places and just relax, and watch the water flow in the path of less resistance. Wish sometimes it was easy for us like that. Thanks for sharing your beautiful art work. Hope all is well, and have a good weekend my friend. Anna :) Anna @ 2009-08-29 10:40:28
Mystical and magical, like a scene out of Lord of the Rings. Nice work! jane @ 2009-08-29 15:14:05

Fantastic motion blur of the water. So beautiful ! cako @ 2009-08-30 17:48:05
I'm sure me comments are completely redundant to what's above...you made a great decision to ride out the rain. There's a clarity and a freshness to this photo that's fantastic. The light, especially as it plays of the edges of the leaves, is perfect. Congrats! Hess @ 2009-08-30 19:33:06
another gorgeous image. grant @ 2009-08-30 20:47:04
What a wonderful composition! The play of curves is amazing...I'm speachless John! Simone @ 2009-09-02 09:34:11
Very very very nice. The soft green colors make it reminding to a fairy tail. LightningPaul @ 2009-09-03 09:32:07
Superb capture. Great to see clarity and misty feel combined in one shot. Were those clouds or a fog, by the way? Rod | BouncedPhoton @ 2009-09-04 01:59:34
That is an incredible shot. I think you must be happy with donning the rain gear and going out that morning, eh? P.J. @ 2009-09-04 14:00:22
Awesome depiction - A stunner! Ivy @ 2009-09-05 00:16:16

Comments on: Misty Stream The weather was hot and humid, it had just rained this particular morning and now the sun was starting to peak through the clouds. I was hesitant about going out on this morning but decided to put on some rain gear and go out and take some photos as I had planned. Lucky for me the rain did stop, even though the weather report was calling for an all day rain.
Thanks for visiting. I really appreciate your support and comments!
