Rapids-O-Rama - a photo on Flickriver

Rapids-O-Rama

            I have not taken and uploaded one of my "special-method"* photos of "moving water dynamics" for a while. Conditions were just right at this locale on a recent afternoon, so I did a few. Here is one. 

BTW - the green cast is due to moss partly covering both these stones and the shallow river bed. 
 
* Special Method - 
The key is to frame and shoot an auto-focused, telephoto zoom closeup of brightly-lit, turbulent water at ca. 1/20s or 1/30s. You shoot in shutter-priority mode, with ISO limited to ca. 200. This forces a DSLR (or equivalent) to use an f/stop of ca. f/20+ (f/36 here) so that everything is more or less in focus. You shoot hand-held with anti-shake turned on, and hope to thus avoid blur caused by hand-holding at a long focal length and low shutter speed. 

Execution: You zoom to compose and then immediately, but gently. click the shutter. If you wait too long, you will begin to shake the camera and get some blur. If you get lucky there is no blur. It is best to make a few shots and pick the sharpest ones later. 
Location: River Wiese, near Maulburg, Lörrach District, Baden-Württemberg DE. 

In my album: Dan's Water World.
