Description
“Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.”
― Margaret Atwood, The Penelopiad

What a wonderful statement. I will have to look up Margaret Atwood. Outstanding post work and a great sense of motion.
You have captured the strength and beauty of water.
This has such a soft, silky look to it---just gorgeous!!
wonderful long-exposure; I love the b/w
Great words, and the perfect image to go with them,!
A very small state park ! Nice work on that picture !
Outstanding work. God bless.
beautiful capture!
A super shot Tara such a powerful capture kinda mesmeric!!
Beautiful combination of power & softness. I'm a fan of Atwood's - I finished her MaddAddam trilogy a few months ago - an amazing dystopian vision of a possible future in which genetic engineering has run amok...
ohh, I just love this, very well done with slow speed - it flows! great in b/w and soft touch! 👌🏼
Well, it certainly seems to find my basement irresistible the last couple of weeks....
Wonderful, flowing photo, Tara!
A beautiful reminder of one of our favorite parks. Flowing water is like fire for me...I can sit and watch it for hours. Your original picture is fine but your experimental postwork has really brought out the best here...highlights and shadows...ahhh, mighty nice.
Laotze (Lao-tzu), one of the first Taoists, said (in essence), be like water, not like rock, as water will wear-down rock eventually, but never the other way around. A silken postwork of water, turning it into curtains of soft, silken light and shadow. Lots of light on top and bottom, making the dark bands in the center balance everything out. A beautifully balanced piece, with wonderful silken textures...
