Silken Cascade at Confluence Park
A gentle cascade tumbles over weathered limestone and vibrant green algae at Confluence Park in San Antonio, Texas, transformed into a silky ribbon of flowing water through a 10-second long exposure. Captured with a Nikon D850 and a 10-stop ND filter, this photograph highlights the contrast between the timeless strength of the rocks and the graceful movement of the San Antonio River. The soft, flowing water creates a calming atmosphere while revealing the intricate textures and colors that make this urban natural oasis such a rewarding destination for photographers and nature lovers alike. #EngelPhotography #ConfluencePark #SanAntonioRiver #SanAntonio #Texas #LongExposurePhotography #NaturePhotography #LandscapePhotography #Waterfall #FlowingWater #River #Limestone #Rock #Algae #FineArtPhotography #ND1000 #PeacefulPlaces #LandscapesAndNature
