Photo 49 (below) is my favorite photo of the creek at Pfeiffer State Park - mostly because if you look close enough you can see the word LOVE etched into the wood railing. There's probably some way I could emphasize that more using Lightroom but I haven't figured it out yet...

My real objective was to get the water to appear blurry, as you see sometimes, giving it a smoky look... which apparently is done using a very slow shutter speed... but I could not get my camera settings to work with that kind of shutter speed. This is one I'm going to have to research and get help on. I took 13 exposures trying to photograph this creek, the best of which you see here, but none were really what I had in my mind's eye.
I like Photo #47 (Below) because you can actually see one big splash of water captured and in focus!

The next images below are another good example of a f-stop exercise... They look good together, side-by-side. But I'm unable to pick one above the other. I like the seeing the leaf and berry with blurry running water in #45, but also like seeing the creek itself in #46 (both below)
