About Continuing the break from the series about the city of Lucerne.

This and the previous shot are my try to get some impressionistic looking captures through vibrating camera and longer exposition times. I glued a heavy metal stick on the rotating part of a very strong dynamo for letting it create vibrations when it rotates. Then I mounted that on the camera and the camera on the tripod. The small vibrations were not enough to contribute to the blurryness of the falling water, since in moves much much more. But the rest of the scene stood still and so the blurryness due to the dynamo is strong there.

Let's see what other techiques may be possible for such pictures.

This is exactly what I am doing now, james! :-)

And some results are really very interesting!

You should try this technique out in an area where the whole scene can be impacted by the dynamo. See what comes of it.

Thanks a lot, Andre!

Let's see what other tricks will be available for "non-standard" photography, whatever that might mean ;-)

Keep well and go on, vibrate and rotate!

Hi Nick,
This one really does have a nice impressionistic look to it. Your time exposure and vibration technique turned it into an interesting abstract.

Thank you very much for the in depth going comment, Annemette! Indeed, we have here both effects. The water appears to be so hard, much harder than the stone, which in the point of view of eternity is true. Water *will* be the sculptor of the stone in the long run. It's strength lies in its softness.

But at that special point, one would really need a very strong physis to withstand the pressure and the cold temperature of water. Believe me, I tried that out, woooooooooooow! :-)

Thanks again and keep it up!

Nick

P.S.: I am glad to live near waterfalls. There are many more of them nearby. Especially travelling in direction to Interlaken, you can see them coming out of vertical mountain walls, falling down for hundrends of meters. (I wouldn't bath there ;-))

Dear Nick
Itīs funny to see the effect. The water actually looks very hard and rough, not soft and welcoming you to bath in it. Impressionism usually makes a landscape soft and dreamy, but here it works in a very unexpected way on the water whereas the cliffs do get that very dreamy touch where the colours blend in with each other.
Interesting!
Take care,
Annemette
PS: How lucky you are to have a waterfall in your area
