    Default Spillway - Does this work?

    There was a lot of water vapour in the air near this spillway and after while I had quite a few droplets on my lens and I started to notice the flares. Rather than wiping it away I decided to shoot on for a bit and see what results I got. This is one of the shots after a little PP.

    I can't decide if it's a keeper or not

    Me too ... I got plenty of shots like the other one.

    I think this rates as an example where flare works

    I think so too - gives it more a sense of being there - like as if the water were hitting your eye glasses. it also looks a bit like beer to me.

    Didn't I mention that?
    It IS beer. We make small lakes out of beer in Australia due to the heat. It makes for more car accidents but at least most of us are mellow when we slam into someone else

    Have you tried converting it to a duotone?
