The sky begins to turn purple as the horizon holds on to the last of the evening light.

I had always wanted to experiment with water, especially to get that amazing velvety effect with flowing water.  There are a number of small rapids on the Rideau River at Hog's Back Park, just a few blocks from my apartment in Ottawa, that I have always been enthralled with.  For a hand-held shot, I am quite pleased with the results.
