Indeed!

What really gets to me is the so frequent and seemingly well accepted, and
trite use of long exposures and blurred, smooth moving water.  How much
more interesting moving water photos might be if they showed the water more
like we see it, which, of course, would require shorter shutter speeds.  I
seem to recall reading somewhere that shutter speeds in the area of 1/15 or
1/30 would provide more realistic results, but I could well be wrong about
the exposure time.

For those of you who photograph water scenes, how about moving away from
such clich� photos and try to put a little more thought and creativity into
what you're doing instead of making what is essentially the same photograph
over and over.
