Fuzzy Flow with Lichen?

As strange as the title sounds, that's exactly what's on tap today. Some"silky, fuzzy, cotton candy" long exposures of a stream and a couple other worldly looking close-ups of lichen. Enjoy and please SHARE.

This is a cool silky water image of the Santa Ana River in the Seven Oaks area of Southern California. Long exposure, gotta love it.

Another in this series of silky water images. This one is a little more close up than the rest.

I just really love shooting these images. This was during the winter, no snow but a cloudy day made for some great diffused sunlight.

This is a super neat close-up of some very colorful lichen growing on the bark of an Alder Tree. The photo was captured in the Seven Oaks area of Southern California, one of my favorite haunts.

Same type of lichen but, a different tree. The challenge here is focus and exposure control while shooting handheld at very close range. I like the results.
