Many are able to avail themselves of grand scenic vistas and spectacular geological features like waterfalls, but where I live we don’t have much like that – and if we do, it’s usually done to death so to speak. For me, the intimate details in small streams can be quite charming and, in a photographic sense, as demanding as the ‘big stuff’.
This little scene is a point in case, I just loved the way the light was illuminating this small section of beck..

Stephen, this has amazing texture and nuance. Beautiful!
Thank you Dan!
Nice and beautiful scene you captured here, Stephen! Would love to spend some time in this place!
Thank you. It is a very small place, but like anywhere, if you hit at the right time…… 😉
A very pretty capture.
We have little streams like yours, but requires a bit of a hike into the forest.
Thank you Daniela. These things can be worth the hike if, when you get there, the light is nice – but if it’s flat and dull it can be a nice walk spoilt by carrying you camera gear. 😉
Nice Shot..looks peaceful 🙂
Thank you. It was. Just the birds singing and the beck babbling.
Here in Oregon, we have a lot of incredible waterfalls, and I love making images of them. But you’re right, the smaller streams and even trickles of water can create captivating photographs when given the same treatment. The textures of moss, leaves, rocks and wood, the flow of the water and more all have the same effect on composition and the final image. Great stuff!
Thank you! The wonder of the photographic frame is that it can be filled with huge things or small things.
Agreed, all around.
Thanks Sid.
Love the greens and flowing waters.
Thanks Jim.
