Oxtongue Rapids
October 21st, 2012
Over a Thanksgiving holiday I was spending some solitary time at the rapids. The hike was full of colourful leaves and this bright red maple tree caught my attention.
This shot is a composite of an exposure lasting several minutes using my Lee Big Stopper to blur the water, and another series of photos combined using HDR to freeze the leaves.
Lee Big Stopper, Photoshop 6, Photomatix.
Canon EOS 5D Mark III, Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0L USM.
Photo Settings: 21mm, f/11, ISO 100.

Was this by any chance taken at Lions Valley Park in Oakville Ontario? That bridge looks very familar to a trail in that park. Just wondering. Great picture.

The water ruins the picture for me. (Looks fake) Would like to see one with no alterations on the water.

Lovely composition, and the reds really pop! I have a MKIII and 17-40 as well, and was considering getting the Lee Starter Kit 2, and eventually snagging a Big Stopper. Do you shoot often with it?

No, the picture was taken at Oxtongue Rapids in the city of Dwight

Chris, i highly recommend getting the lee big stopper, very useful for daylight especially if you wanted silky water effect. High quality glass, i don't notice any color cast, although its very hard to find due to demand but a good investment. The lee big stopper required holder and adapter so might as well get the starter kit now and then the big stopper. you wont regret!

Great composition, use of colour, and framing. Have faith in your photography, it looks great without the artificial sharpening undoing your great work!
You've really notched up the sharpening too far, giving everything (especially the trees, leaves, and red leaves against the sky) a very artificial white and black halo around the edges, which ruins the high-resolution version of the wallpaper.
