looks like a nice spot. Love the silky water, looking at your EXIF data, I would of been tempted to rest your camera on something (or take a tripod) lower the iso to 100 and keep the shutter open longer to compensate.

ya thanks for the suggestions Richard, I was going to use my tripod but forgot it back at camp, and ended up with a bunch of motion blurred pictures. These pictures are the few that turned out. Oh well I guess there is always next year.

Richard gives good advice here!

I dig shot 2 in this set!

Bloody good shots considering the shutter speed of 1/4 - 1/5 sec!

I love the movement of the water. Good capture.
