Thanks Robert! I forgot about Velvia's bluish cast! A moose filter would be awesome... I'll have to start hitting Ebay to catch one on sale... my 19-35mm takes 77mm filters! Thanks again for your comment!

What an idyllic little stream you found there, Kim! I love the way the long exposure renders the falling water, and the little spray of yellow-green leaves jutting out is a great accent! For my taste, I feel you could add a little more contrast as the scene seems a tad flat overall, but the lovely cool color palette is wonderful. I think you got good advice about using the warming filter for this kind of situation - you may also be seeing some 'reciprocity failure' caused by the slow shutter speed, which may result in the color cast.

Oops, forgot to mention that your color correction looks just fine to me.

First of all, nice image. The water looks great.
As for the blue cast, you could try a warming filter or even a 'Moose' filter which combines a circular polarizer with an 81A warming filter. How cool is that?! This may be the way to go, especially on the wide end of your zoom lens where stacking filters would vingette. Also, I think Velvia is going to naturally get a little bluer with a long exposure, but then this was needed for the water to look the way you wanted it.

A frame may set it off. Nice spring-water immitation of coffee swirls.

This is a fascinating effect with the foam Kim, great idea. I really like how the water still managed to come out transparent, allowing the submerged rock to come through. As funky as it is, i feel there is too much focus on the surrounding foliage. That swirling pool should be center-stage. Nevertheless, great subject, great idea, great outcome. thanks for sharing, matt

Great photo!! Dont have a clue as to how to correct that blue cast in camera. You might try using a warming filter but, thats just a guess. You'd have to ask someone who's more knowledgable then I. Like the use of the polarising filter. I have some shots where I did the same, will post them soon. Jim Gamble
