Mannum Willows

Another image from the late night shoot near Mannum South Australia.

Just love the River Murray and the starkness of the willow trees lining the banks in this spot create wonderful silhouettes at last light.

Thanks to Dave and River Rat from Mannum (mannum Motel) for their support in joining me on these repeat visits to this magical little strip of the river.

Canon 400D, CIR polarising filter. 18-55 lens.

    Good one Steve, love the ducks, actually looks like they were there, and not PS’d in!

  • Steve Chapple replied

    They were actually a lot closer to the bank but when I stomped down to the bank they shot out into the river shown by the rapid little water ripples…By the time I got the shot in they were almost too far out to show.

    Must’ve been difficult to PS the wake and ripples from the ducks!
    Seriously great photo Steve.

  • Steve Chapple replied

    Thanks Neil, yes I’m not that into PS to be able to add things into images. Just lucky that they were not too far out before I got the shot. I didn’t see them until they shot out from the edge…
