This is a great shot. It definitly has the "wow" factor for me. Do without the border and sell it. Beautiful! Congrats!

One of my favorites this week! Nice & silky -- love it!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Oskar, after looking at your portfolio, I was wondering if this was your picture. It\\\\\\\'s good, very good! Congratulations. The juxtaposition of the clear little grasses in the snow and the running water, the rocks in the middle, it\\\\\\\'s just right.

My one gripe, and it\\\\\\\'s a personal thing, is that I don\\\\\\\'t much care for the border. The picture is too beautiful to need a border that grabs that much attention. On the other hand, I haven\\\\\\\'t seen it without the border, so it might be better this way :)

Great capture of the movement of the water. Love the rock in the middle, but I find the snow and grass in front takes away from the overall appeal of the image. 8

a feeling of cool mist... great exposure! relatively interesting.

This is an excellent photo! 10

12/21/2003 12:21:44 AM
nice water flow... slightly overexposed for my personal taste...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/20/2003 12:37:33 AM
I\'m not sure I like how quickly your eye is whisked through this shot... I think it need a little more of reference points to make it more effective IMHO Definatly interesting though!

pastorial scenic view......

I like the scene and composotion - river looks beautiful. Focus is a little soft on the motionless areas though. Border is a bit too haeavy too.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/19/2003 03:24:09 PM
I really like these blurred motion images and this is no exception. Very good portrayal of speed and power.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/19/2003 10:16:05 AM
Lovely - simply wonderfull.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/19/2003 10:06:34 AM
a little too much frame
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/19/2003 08:37:14 AM
Absolutely beautiful! The addition of the frozen foreground in this shot really makes it for me. Love the compositional framing of the shot; it makes it a very strong image. 9

12/18/2003 11:22:13 PM
Actually, I think I prefer your outtake (the one from the forums), but still, this is a very nice picture, and I'm sure you will do well with it = )
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/18/2003 11:21:35 PM
Damn you and your excellent shot! :-) My first 10 of the challenge

Edit: I predict a blue ribbon.

Nothing I can say except - wow.

12/17/2003 12:22:44 PM
This is just so serene. I love the frozen grass, it gives stability and dimension to the shot. Awesome effect. 10

It´s just a fantasti picture. I love it. I haven´t words, just briliant shot. Can you send me a PM explaining how did you take it, please? I hope to see you in the top 10 of this week. 10

12/16/2003 09:15:47 PM
Really liked how you pulled this off with the snow in the foreground.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/16/2003 04:22:49 PM
What can I say? Wow! 10
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/16/2003 03:59:14 PM
I really like the slow shutter effect on moving water, but I think this may be a bit too much of a good thing. I like the contrast with the ice and the detail in the plants.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/16/2003 10:33:24 AM
the water is like silk.... great!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/15/2003 10:21:02 PM
Looks like a winner to me. How nice it must be to have a place like this to enjoy.....10

What a beauty!!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/15/2003 10:52:32 AM
beautiful photograph....love the framing and composition....the snow and the grass in the foreground is fantastic....love the water movement effect too. I would guess s very slow shutter speed to capture such an effect?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/15/2003 08:48:28 AM
Wonderful! Although I wouldn't have included the inner black border, I love this photo! This is so beautiful dynamic, I have the feeling it will break through my monitor! Great job, good luck! :-)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/15/2003 07:41:52 AM
Stunning, I love long exposure shots, this is a great example.

My only gripe is the snow covered grass in the front of the picture. I'd have liked that not there. (That's only my opinion though...)

A great shot. [10]
