I took the first shot in the BYU–Idaho gardens the day we went as a class. To blur the water, I set the shutter speed to 1/10 and steadied the camera against a rock. I adjusted the levels slightly in Photoshop, but because it was a cloudy day I was able to get this effect without much trouble.
I took shot 2 by the stream in my parents' backyard. It was too bright outside to blur the water, so I set the shutter speed to 1/1,000 to freeze it. I didn't notice the spots of light as I was taking the photo, but I decided I liked them. I also took shot 3 by the same stream using a 1/1,000 shutter speed.
The sparkling water is beautiful. The water is so smooth but the sun catches its little imperfections and makes them beautiful. Great shot.
