A lot of photographs of moving water use a long exposure to bring out the silky smoothness of the flow. Here for instance, the exposure was .6 sec. That’s pretty long for a normal exposure.
This one was even longer at 1.6 sec.
We’re used to seeing nice smooth flow. That is a trick of the camera and also of our brains. We interpret the scene as smoothly flowing. Photographing water up close and at more normal photographic exposures shows something quite different:
Dimples. This is a function of surface tension. Once again, enter a different world than the one we think we inhabit.
Most of these pictures were shot at 1/100 sec. or faster and a different picture emerges.
That looks like a hole in the water.
Would you expect to see something like that? I wouldn’t have.
Surface tension.
When I see this, I wonder what else we are missing. It’s all right there in front of us. All we need to do is look with a camera. And wonder.
Spirit and Seeing 
Very nice.
Very interesting. You posted pretty early this a.m. Having a hard time adjusting to time change? I personally hate it!!
While wondering thru your sensuous and artistic images of light, form, lines, textures, and movement that continuously change….I thought I would look for a poem to match what you have captured…. this poem seems to have a lot of depth as do your photos… just beautiful
“There is a point where in the mystery of
existence contradictions meet;
where movement is not all movement
and stillness is not all stillness;
where the idea and the form,
the within and the without, are united;
where infinite becomes finite,
yet not losing its infinity.
