Importance of Using Foreground:
The slabs of sandstone in this shot were used as foreground. It is very important to include foreground in most cases. The foreground in this shot leads the eye into the frame and creates more interest in the foreground. The sandstone slabs are much more interesting than just having water in the foreground. The long exposure accentuated the sandstone slabs by making the water look very calm.
Thanks for the tip on including foreground. I'll try to remember this for future shots.
