Beautox – but there’s nothing much green up there anyway!

That probably was the aim of the photographer. For instance, the water in the foreground shows some motion blur, due to the low-ish shutter speed. But the background is sharp. Plus, the post-processing is designed to bring out the contrast and detail, a step that is often omitted. Todd/Sarah were not trying to make a ‘real life’ image, but something more artistic than that.

why is there an ‘unrealness’ to these photos? They look more like very accurate paintings than real life images.

I donated some of my best shots, printed, to my dentist. Now his patients get to see my pics when they are in the chair. Not sure if that is real good association going on there.

That must be one hardy girl you have there!
Like the angle of the shot giving the river its power.

Here’s an idea for dosh for the Sisson couple. Visit a few GPs and suggest your fabulous pics be available to their buggered up, stressed out patients on BP medication as an alternative to, or at least an add on . to their stress remedies. Heh … sometimes the silliest of comments contain a kernel of truth.
