This is a scene in the Big Cottonwood Creek. I really enjoy cascades that look so peaceful amid the rushing torrent of water surrounding them. A couple seconds on the shutter and a very tight aperture allows this flowing water look.
On an outing at Silver Lake in Big Cottonwood Canyon I wanted to shoot the grass reflection in the water until I noticed the wonderful lines of the walkway that leads to a fishing dock immediately behind me.
Using a wine glass, some brightly colored flowers, a little water with food coloring, and a white background with studio lighting I created this lovely setting.
