Walter Sisulu

[Neilmac50]

Friday I paid a visit to Walter Sisulu botanical gardens in Johannesburg to see the waterfall which is in full flow at the moment, here are a few images from my visit.

Very nice. I am a sucker for waterfalls. I prefer the first one as it shows more of the falls and the four cascades. I was not including the small one in the foreground. The exposure has not been long enough to make the water truly silky - nearly but not completely. It is a technique that I think is over used and in nice bright lighting I prefer to see life and sparkle in the water.

The bracket fungi photograph has very attractive lighting. The combination of green leaves with magenta flowers is pleasing but the composition does not completely work for me. I find garden and bush shots are always a bit of a challenge.

Nice set, Neil.

The fungi look really good when zoomed in. The image has very nice texture, tone, and lighting.

Nice images Neil - #1 in particular is great. I can't see the exif - did you focus stack or use a single exposure?

Nice captures.

I love waterfalls. I think that the shutter speed in this case is too slow. A slightly higher shutter speed should result in the water having more texture to it instead of being silky white. That is only my opinion.
