Have you ever found yourself hypnotised by staring at running water? Doesn’t it feel peaceful? There is a profound sense of calm that water brings to our mind and body. If you find water running from your faucet relaxing, imagine how much more a water falling from high ground surrounded by nature, could bring you? This week, our members shared their amazing photos of a water fall.
Tall or small, the sound it makes and the scene it offers provides a certain kind of peace, a time to reflect on one’s life and appreciate the wonders of our world.

Am I the only photographer who is not in love with blurry water? I do not like the practice of making all waterfalls and waves look like milk. OK there are SOME cases where a LITTLE bit of blur may ADD to the impact of a photo, But generally, I prefer to capture crisp, sharp images of the moving water. What do others think?
