After my initial posting, I found myself motivated to revisit Spring Creek trail with more intention to pay attention to Raj’s (XDrive ) high speed lesson. He noted that this high speeds allows the photographer to freeze motion as it permits “only a fraction of a second for the sensor to ‘see’ the scene” and the sensor “is going to record things at standstill even though they are moving.”

Thank you Raj…this lesson plan opened up a whole new visual world as well as shed some light into the importance of intention and attitude within the creative process of photography.

Wow, this is beautiful, Brenda. Thank you! You are inspirational in your experimentation with photography. Many blessings 🙂
Thank you…it seems to be a never ending learning project.
Creative and beautiful way to capture these bubbles, Brenda!
Thanks Amy…interesting how these small waterfalls create bubbles.
Amazing photos, Brenda!
Have a great day.
Thanks Helen. Hope your weekend is filled with joy and laughter
Wow, Brenda! These are beautiful! So well done.
Thank you…high shutter speed does create interesting images.
Thanks Brenda for the update once more.
Pic 1: That’s a perfectly frozen waterfall! It looks more like a ice now! 😀 Perfect settings have been used. Probably you could have added some context to the image by including some surrounding.
Pic 2, Pic 3 and Pic 4: Lovely capture of the water bubbles. Helen did some experimentation like that couple of days back. Looks great as abstract photography. However, I will not call this high-speed photography because there is no need for high shutter speeds here. Bubbles are not fast moving.
This comment is part of XDrive’s photography learning sessions. Thanks for the updates once more Brenda.

Thank you for the clarification between abstract and fast speed photography. I often find myself confused as to some the classifications, esp., fine art, rural, and street. Hope your weekend is filled with laughter and family.
Thank you Brenda… you have a great weekend too!
These are great Brenda! I am so glad I am on my laptop and could enjoy them full screen (as opposed to on my phone). Lovely!
Thank you…”Lovely!” is soul food for this photographer.
Lovely shots
Thank you. I’m glad you stopped by as I enjoyed by return visit to your blog.
