From the recent walk from Mardale Head to Small Water, a long exposure shot of one of many cascades over rocks as the stream flows from Small Water down to Haweswater Reservoir – heaven if you like that sort of thing! And there is probably some more if you walk from Mardale Head up towards Blea Water too – I had seen those in the distance on the first part of the walk – next trip perhaps!

Using an ND10 filter to give an exposure time of 13s, the water goes silky as it falls over the rocks – looks good in colour or black and white – I love both!

Main image – Fuji X-A5 with an XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4.0 OIS lens – 18mm; f/5; 13s – tripod – Edited in Lightroom 6.3

B/W image – As above, but also edited in Niksoft SilverFX Pro.
