Darren's Mill aka Mabry Mill
Uploaded: May 16, 2005 22:33:50
Darren has been encouraging me to join this site and to post this picture taken when he hosted our visit to Virginia. He is a wonderful and encouraging friend.
Minolta 75-300mm lens, Velvia shot at 50ISO with a tripod. I don't recall any other facts since this was shot last October.

Again, thanks everyone for a wonderful welcome. Nobi, it is good to see you here as well and I look forward to seeing your work too. Cathy, the water runs very sporadically at the Mill-it is a matter of waiting and hoping to catch it. It only ran for a few seconds as is - I was lucky to be set up and waiting and waiting and waiting...lol.Art McLeod May 17, 2005 0

What a mixture of enchanted surprise and heartfelt disappointment! Your shots were a wonderfully charming experience, especially the mill, but I was sad to see there were not more! Let's get some more up and showing!The Mill was indeed a stunning and beautiful piece. Being a westerner the beauties of your neck of the woods is a bit foriegn to me but certainly not beyond my appreciation. I hope you can share more shots with us soon.

Your patience was well rewarded, as the flowing water adds such a wonderful touch to the entire composition. The movement provides a great contrast to the perfectly still lake and is a beautiful compliment to those vibrant fall leaves! Quite an enchanting shot! #1383205
