A big thanks to everyone who joined in with the motion blur photography challenge last month.

So for this month I thought we could see how people get on with a water photography challenge.

If you would like some tips on water photography then this article will point you in the right direction:

This is not a competition so there will be no winners announced, it's purely for fun and self-development.

Simple Rules:
  • Sony cameras only please
  • Please don't post more than 3 separate posts, multiple images may be included in a single post.
Have fun!
