Excellent photos. I was almost inspired to go out and take some river photos myself until I remembered that the only running water near here is either in ditches or an enormous tidal estuary... ;-)

#4 is my favourite.

Took another short trip this weekend. This time it was to Zion National Park
in southern Utah. I wanted to get some shots in the Narrows section of the
Virgin River. The link below is to 5 shots I took in or near The Narrows.
All these were taken with *istD with FA 28 2.8 at f22 and 6 to 8 seconds.
Had to use polarizer and 3 stop ND to get the shutter speed down to where I
wanted it. All images were processed with PS CS. The stitched images took a
lot of work to get just right.

The Narrows section of the Virgin River gets really narrow way up the
canyon. There are places where you can touch both canyon walls at the same
time and it is 800' to the top. I did not get that far up this time as the
water was too cold and too deep. I plan to go back later in the year when it
is warmer with less flow.

Comments welcome.
