Natural landscapes: flowing through the winter ice
BIG HILL SPRINGS PROVINCIAL PARK, NEAR COCHRANE, ALBERTA
No matter what season or weather, this western Canada park is a reliable location to find compelling photos. In this case, I really liked the ice formations and decided to show you a monotone version, since there was almost no colour to be had. A long exposure made the water silky so (1) it wouldn’t compete with the sharp and rugged ice and (2) it would subtly suggest a way for your eyes to flow through the composition. Nikon D7100, tripod, polarizing filter and, maybe, a neutral density (darkening) filter
