If All the Skies
by Henry van Dyke
If all the skies were sunshine,
Our faces would be fain
To feel once more upon them
The cooling splash of rain.
If all the world were music,
Our hearts would often long
For one sweet strain of silence,
To break the endless song.
If life were always merry,
Our souls would seek relief,
And rest from weary laughter
In the quiet arms of grief.

Yesterday I found a photo tutorial by Dina Belenko iso.500px.com/tutorial-neat-trick-for-creating-cool-splas... that I want to try and I've been obsessing about it. In fact, I couldn't sleep and kept trying to to build a composition as I lay in bed. Typically I am a sound sleeper but not last night I tossed and turned finally getting up at 2 to eat something and clear my head.
This is not the image I am obsessing about making, that will take some real efforts to build out a composition and for set up. I might have to wait until October to try and create a Halloween version, can't wait!
The fountain square in Nice is one of the favorite places for tourists and local inhabitants especially in the summer, when everyone is tired of the hot weather. For the children it is a kind of amusement park and opportunity to get fun in the cool splashes of water.

Someone (Mark) asked if they had a swim! They were in the water a good few minutes before I even got to the water :)

All of these cool splashes of cinematic color keep drawing my eye to this scenario. Here looking the other direction....

WIT: Another shot, this time just feathers, but more water, creating a more abstract image. Can't decide which one I prefer...

Black skimmer produced this cool splash while skimming in literally last rays of almost gone sun... @ Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve
To wake to the warm sun on your face and the cool splash of a waterfall, it is hard to describe.

The William Mulhollland Memorial Fountain, built in 1940, on the corner of Los Feliz and Riverside Drive in Los Angeles, CA. Part of Mulholland Memorial Park, which celebrates the Department of Water and Power, and the man who routed water into the then desert community of Los Angeles from the Central Valley.
Kaiate Falls

This waterfall is located 20 minutes out from Tauranga and is a series of lovely cascades all the way to this deep cool splash pool. at the right conditions you could spend hours here with the cascades above too but we were visiting with the kids in bright sunshine so limited our photography time to a few shots each. This is Marianne's version.

This was taken about a year ago on the lane that goes past the local manor. The sun was going down so there was a surprising amount of colour about. We’re having overnight frosts this week so it seems quite appropriate…
I originally intended this as a monochrome, but preferred the colours. I just love the swirly patterns :)
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy frostiness :)
This was day 2 of trying to capture a cool splash photo. Yesterday I learned a great deal about my settings, etc. Today's images are much closer.
I had help from the two ladies in the house with both shoots. Mommy assisted with water clean up in between drops as well as dropping the lemon and Ainsley did lots of drops. This image was one that Ainsley dropped the lemon while I took the photo with the shutter release.
I am looking forward to warmer weather so I can set this up in the garage.
Waves crashing against the cliffs of La Jolla Shores.
I adjusted exposure and maxed out vibrance and clarity in Photoshop's RAW tool, then created a second layer using NIK Collection's Color Efex Pro and blended it in with the background layer.
Came across this hidden gem of a place on one of our local drive outs in rural France. Great for Rups and Razz too as they both had a lovely cool splash around!
This was an outtake from my splash shots. I believe it is an earlier attempt and i used front light in full Sun which can be a little boring. Also way to close for a cool splash shot. However the disinterested look on my oldest and the shock on my daughters face , (we broke the umbrella), really cracked me up. So i wanted to post it anyway.
I hope you all like it.
Thanks again for the comments, faces, and support my friends. I appreciate it.

A simple backlit scene by placing the glass directly in front of a softbox. Flash was set to 1/32 power to freeze the action.
Seemingly as part cooling off, part bathing (and part fun!), on hot summer days, black skimmers often transition from typical skimming to a full dunk of their heads in the water while in flight. This immersive blast is usually followed by rest and preening on the beach at the surf's edge. I've observed black skimmers engage in this behavior only in summer.
AF sensors grabbed contrast in the waves (as is often the case in such situations, for me at least) instead of the skimmer as AF point, but I felt focus was close enough to make this photo presentable. I managed a few bird-in-focus photos, too, but this photo best depicted the behavior described above.
My four-legged companion's favorite trail to walk always provides a cooling splash. Lots of little waterfalls, lots of blackberries, and lots of moss-covered logs. Not a whole lot of sunlight reaches the bottom of the creek bed, so when the sun hits a waterfall, it demands a photo.
The city plaza bustled with life around an ancient stone well, its copper dome gleaming under the sun. A wooden beam held a swaying bronze-banded bucket, its iron chain creaking as a veiled woman drew water. Merchants called their wares, children laughed, and the scent of spices filled the air. Travelers paused, drinking deeply, as the cool splash of water echoed. The well stood timeless, a silent witness to the rhythm of the city.

It's been a while since I was last down Ullswater. A morning wander with the dogs for a cooling splash before the heat of the day. The third heatwave of the year and another 30 degrees.
I was hurtin' for a shot tonight. It was a great Sunday and though I shot a few frames while walking home from the cafe at lunch time, nothing really floated my boat. We went to a movie this afternoon ("My Week with Marilyn"... go see it, it was excellent) and by the time dinner was over, I had mostly forgotten about my daily shot until after 21:00.
I spent a few minutes setting up my light bulb from Day 2 and was planning to spin a light behind it and an idea struck... what if I combine the light bulb with a splash... and the rest was pure magic.
After setting up, I fired a few test frames to get the strobes set and I was giddy with what I saw in the view finder. An hour, two lighting changes and a hundred frames later, I had over twenty stellar shots from which to choose. I narrowed it down to two and decided on this one because I like the look of the blue gel in contrast to orange cast by the four MR-16s overhead and the crater-like impact of the drops. I'll post the alternate tomorrow as it's now after midnight and the Monday morning workday will be here too soon. :)
Strobist info: Nikon D700; 1/200 sec.; f/7.1, 50 mm; ISO 400; -1/3 EV; SB600 right with flags on both sides zoomed to 28mm @ 1/64 triggered by Pocket Wizard II's; quad MR-16 strip over head (ambient)
A black bird takes a cool splash in the garden birdbath today. I was out with my camera when he flew onto the fence then just dived right in, and started slashing and ducking under the water- water drops were going everywhere. With the temperature of around 26'c who can blame him.
hihihi.
i'm baaaack :]
i had a wonderful vacation! there was hardly anyone on the beach so i took a lot of photos like this one without being stared at too much ;]
This family seemed enjoying to feel the cool splash from the falls。They raise their hands to welcome people below to come up and join them to feel the splash。
A very hot day in the central valley of California. The best place to hide from the heat is under a water umbrella. Grand kids are fun...

I thought I had a description on this. I went to this beautiful place along a nature trail in CT. I was unprepared, without a tripod. Though, I wanted to try slow shudder speeds. I didn't breath for the few hours I worked on this laying over not so comfy stones in the stream. Needless to say, not many photos came out, but I kind of liked this one.
Have a wonderful day everyone!!!!

I haven't been on Flickr for EONS it feels like, and I have no clue how River Maiden blew to the top of my 'interestingness' photos, when I don't recall as it being in the top 20 before I left some months ago.....
Sorry my dear friends that my availability to my pc has been nil, and my husband has been on his almost always working on more degrees in his field..
and my husband's pc has exactly 0 photo software on it, where my pc has TONS over the years.....
not even anything to upload my photos with, let alone putting a simple stamp on them...
anyway, I hope this will be cleared up by the end of next month
SHEE AAAAAT happens i guess, as an old nurse friend of my mother's used to say :-(
