This was a really dark and dirty scene. It’s a murky, muddy creek, under a freeway overpass. Really bad light, surrounded by mud, weeds and litter. I used the new ND1000 filter on my telephoto lens to smooth out the water and exclude the surrounding crap. In reality it’s only about 6” deep, but it looks far more inviting now.
