This picture is an intimate 30-second exposure taken at a high altitude of the Nooksack River. The Nooksack River begins its journey flowing from within the Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Forest.
I appreciate the value of the members who have been specific regarding the ND filters used in their pictures. I can be specific in this picture as I only have one B+W solid ND filter for this prime lens. This 55mm Zeiss prime lens ranks second best according to the DXO Mark of all Sony Zeiss lenses made for E-mount full-frame Sony cameras.
This stretch of the Nooksack River flows under a thick canopy of forest; the river is best lit when the sun is lighting it from strait above. This picture was taken at 2:40 p.m. This time of the day was perfect for a detailed close-up of the water flowing through, over, and under the rocks.
I selected this picture from the shoot as it has the most water flow of the ones I liked best.
