Getting harder for me to get afield and take photo's. Seems when you only have 45% feeling in a leg and workers comp doesn't seem to be in any type of 'hurry' to get things better, well....
I digress....first one is not technically long exposure, but the 0EV was 4seconds and the +3EV was 30seconds.
Here is a HDR(shots at -3, 0, +3EV):

And yes, there were Rainbow Trout right next to the 'falls'(spring that comes out of the cave). Looked to be a small-ish fish of about 12in length that was confused because it couldn't get any further upstream.
Another spot on the same creek. This time I used a Hoya 1000x ND filter on the Sigma 24-70 DG 2.8 Macro, and then left the shutter open for 8+ minutes. During the time I was sitting there waiting on the exposure to get completed....there was a nice Rainbow Trout hiding out near the flat rock on the right lower side of the frame. I can only guess its size at around 16in...

Scott (liking these longer exposure times) B
Scott, beautiful set, thanks for sharing them and your exposure data. I really enjoyed your Flickr site. Praying that your mobility issue is resolved.
Outstanding photos. Glad you were able to go out for these. ;-)
Beautiful set. My favorite is no 3 with the falls in the background and the clear calm water in the foreground. Really nice!

Very nice set! They really feel like they capture the mood of these beautiful spots!
Good luck with WC. They thrive on delay and I frequently encourage patients to get a lawyer who is experienced dealing with WC (I am a DOCTOR! Can you imagine a doctor advising people to get a LAWYER? You know things are bad! :) ) When I was practicing in Maine patients would often need to get a lawyer to push just to get the MRI scan that I had ordered. WC is not that bad here in Florida.
Nice shots, very well thought out. Get better soon!
Wow- I like the long exposure combined with the HDR.
