Moody Waters

One of Perth’s most photographed waterscape.

The best photographs tend to be those unplanned moments that don’t come along all to often, when mother nature and timing cross paths.

As Ansell Adam said: ””A good photograph is knowing where to stand”” but I think it is also knowing…when.

I think I was extremely luck to catch this moment, as I have seen hundreds of photos of this place, but I think I have captured the amazing symmetry that the nature hides most of the time.

    Has an surreal dream like quality to this image…I agree timing has so much to do with taking that ‘perfect’ picture. Very attractive image.

    You have captured an amazing photograph Brett. In photography we are taught never to place the ‘main interest’ in the centre but you have proven with this photo that rules should often be broken.

    Brett, I’ve stood in exactly the same spot, but not got nearly such a splendid outcome. Really good, you caught it just right. You might be interested in my own addition to PhotoZen-same location (loosely) different angle, different day.

    I have to shoot this place one day, hopefully the sky will do something amazing and I can capture it as well as this :-)

  • Brett Earl replied

    haha…thanks Peter. I was bloody lucky to catch this, the conditions on the day only held like this for about 2 hours. then the wind picked up. I’m yet to see the river this flat again. but i’m sure it will happen soon :)

    Magic! A shot to be really proud of. Love the wispy clouds, the muted tones & the glassy water. It feels like you could float through the scene like in a dream.

  • Brett Earl replied

    What a description! :) Thanks Adam
