Too much noise. A despeckle would have cleaned this up.

it cost me a little figuring out what this was. and im still unsure. i believe better quality and eliminating the fog at the top maybe even a slower shutter speed to feather out the water wouldve gotten you a better placing.

Interesting image, but a bit to unsharp for my taste. good luck

Could have been a great photo, but it seems overworked (could just be me) or maybe there's some motion blur. It's just not sharp enough to get me to the WOW stage.

6. Right off the bat, the photo looks very noisy. Very, very noisy. I might even suggest NeatImage on this one. But it's a beautiful pic and almost looks like a painting. Very artsy and I like artsy. Good work. It's a shame your camera's noise threw a curveball into the score.

Beautiful work -- it has a wonderful painterly quality. Good composition as well!

Part of the image has a lot of digital noise, perhaps taken at a higher ISO setting or, brightened up to get details from rather dark area. But what's bothering me is not the noise (or grain) at all, but it's the part of the image that's looking rather soft. Looks like parts of the image were smudged or blurred and other parts left intact. Whatever it is, it's not very pleasing.
If getting rid of the grain was the intention, you could try using a software like NeatImage or any other.
