I have been where the water is so clean I can see to

DESTROY THIS EARTH WITH STUPID IDEAS ABOUT HOW
THEY NEED SO MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH
MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH
MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH
WHEN all we ever wanted was LOVE

Location
This photo was taken at a secret pool off Hwy 2 in Washington State.Time
This was shot during early afternoon.Lighting
It was a sunny day which gave great color to the area but also posed some light and shadow challengesEquipment
Canon 7D w/2 sec timer set Tamron 10-24 w/ 8ND filter TripodInspiration
This location brought a lot of inspiration. It was secluded, peaceful, and almost mystical.Editing
This was an HDR/Bracketed composite of 3 exposures. I edited each exposure in Lightroom to bring out the elements I wanted to be in the forefront of the image. I then brought the exposures into Photoshop and digitally blended them together in the finished photo.In my camera bag

For shots with extreme lights and shadows, its always prudent to get to know your cameras HDR functionality, using your tripod, and to get out there and practice taking shots of this nature. Now not everybody out there has the budget for software like Photoshop to blend your exposures together. But that's ok. There is a great freeware piece of software called "GIMP" that I used for a while before upgrading to Photoshop that has a lot of online tutorials on "youtube" on how to do digital blending in the same manner as you would in Photoshop (and its free) :-)
