Beautiful shot! Where was this taken?

@Chetana: Thanks, Chetana :) This was during a hike at Watkins Glen, a place I revisited this summer after two years.

Anupama from India

Lovely shot...the way the light is concentrated in the centre of the picture is really nice...I am just wondering how you are getting this kind of a picture at that high a shutter speed, the water I mean...but great shot!

@Anupama: Thanks :) This shot required absolutely no effort on my part. I didn't have to play around with the exposure too much either. It was an unobtrusive beauty waiting to be snared.

Later edit: I guess the higher ISO helped too.

I actually liked the lights in this one. its a nice shot. I would probably do it with 1/4 shutter time or something like that so that the water looks a little buttery. nontheless pic is very thoughtfull :)

@Rahul Nayak: Thanks, Rahul. Do you mean 1/4 shutter speed i.e. longer times? I actually wanted to capture the different streams of water flowing separately and so liked the way this picture turned out.
