But I was there. I had my camera, there had to be something to do photographically. I decided to play around with some techniques that I had heard at a recent workshop. Rather than holding your camera still, with fast shutter speeds and wide open apertures to free the action you do the exact opposite. You use long shutter speeds of 1/8 - 1/15 of a second (or longer), narrow apertures, and you purposely move the camera to create artistically blurred images.
Now I've take my share of accidentally blurred and out of focus images, but would you believe it is a lot harder to do it intentionally and end up with a pleasing result.
So here is a different view of the refuge. Hope you enjoy it. If you don't stop back again. I promise to take some "normal" photos of the flora and fauna.
Here are some horizontal panned views of the impoundments.
