"Arizona Stream"
General: 5:13 PM on 11/25/05 | Canon 20D
Technical: 3sec | f/8.0 | 29mm (46mm) | ISO-100
Lens: EF 17-40mm f/4L USM
Exposure Mode: Av (Aperture Priority)
Exposure Bias: -1
Flash: No

The sun was almost gone, but I was able to capture this scene with a tripod and the L. I've made several 13x19 prints, and the results are amazing. At ISO 100, this image is almost too smooth. The detail remains sharp even in the leaves in the corner and the tops of the tree. The lighting and composition could be a bit better, but I am quite pleased with the results.

...more finals...and I'm still sick. :S

Very tranquil. The water is so clear...New Hampshire water (where I grew up) is like that as well. Every other place we've lived has muddy streams.

I like the mood of tranquility. You found a beautiful, colorful lancscape in Arizona - and water, too!

The glistening, crystal clear water and the beautifully hued foliage are great here. I especially like the reflections!
