"Water" - hsiehjon's Choice

April is coming, which means rain for a lot of us in the northern hemisphere. This week's topic is "water". No technical constraints, just anything you can capture that relates to water is fair game. Let's see how creative you can be! Color, B&W, HDR...anything goes!

DO NOT SHOOT OR POST IMAGES UNTIL WEDNESDAY MAR 29
This early announcement of the topic is to give a little think time, before the challenge begins. Photos must be taken and submitted between 00:00 UTC of the start date and 00:00 UTC of the end date.



The Rules

1. Photos must be captured with a Nikon and appear in the thread with EXIF info in order to be considered for the challenge. If the forum EXIF viewer does not show for any reason, listing the camera and capture date/time below the photo is acceptable. Listing exposure info, lens & focal length is encouraged so others can learn.

2. Any photo submitted for a weekly challenge must be taken during the dates specified in the challenge thread.

3. Only one photo entry per member for each week, unless otherwise noted.

4. All regularly active members of Nikonites are allowed to participate, including moderators and administrators.

Voting

During the submission & like periods, please click the Thanks/Like button to vote for your favorite images. You can vote for as many as you want! At the end of the week, you will have the opportunity to vote again for the top 3 photos for this challenge!

There will be no cash or prizes awarded for the Weekly Photo Challenges, unless specifically noted by the site administrator.

Any photo will be accepted for the challenge. Edited or straight out of the camera, it does not matter. You are left with complete freedom to do whatever genre of photography you wish to do, and your own interpretation of the challenge subject.

Plenty of water here at the moment coming down almost horizontally, we have cyclone Debbie just off the coast. But I am not going out there with my camera at the moment.

Screenshot from the local radar just now.

If only that screen shot was taken by a Nikon computer...and if it was after Wednesday, that could have been your submission for the week! ;)

Stay safe over there Ironwood!

The water is still frozen in this part of the world, but water is water.

How about a water drop from an indoor water faucet? Or possibly an indoor fountain? Hmm...water balloon bursting (that would be fun to try if you could stay far enough away)? Water cooler? Bottled water? Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. ;)

Spring is here and the creeks are running full blast, water gushing below the ice that's left to melt. Hopefully, summer will come.

I had plans to post a shot of the floodwaters we have had around here lately. But after hearing news of family and friends houses and properties being inundated by the rising waters, I feel a bit depressed just looking at floodwater shots.

I will just post this abstract shot instead....

Glad we got that full day of solid rain to fill the reservoirs around town. This is from the closer one to me in Wilde Lake.
