I like this shot too! Can you describe a bit more on how you made the exposure, for a newbie like me its not quite clear. Did you take the 4x1s offset in time?
Hi, yes, it was dusk and I was shooting a chrome so nothing I can really do after I've shot it and needed to capture the shadows without blowing the sky so measured, measured and measured again to get the right exposure. With 4 seconds for exposure time and decided to shoot 4 successive one second exposures so the water wasn't just one big continuous blur (I had no idea it would work). In the scan or direct under a loupe you can actually see the rings where the rain is hitting the water. Somehow the uploaded image looks a bit fuzzy. There's a crop of the detail on Flickr here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/gresh/3...57615686785484

Donald your compositions are all terrific. And you're prints seem to be of fantastic quality.
