lovely pastel colors. motion blur in this case creates comforting fields of white. 7.

The color seems very washed out and perhaps a bit on the red/purple side? I like the blur of the waves, but the person on the beach and the landscape should be better focused.

It's a very nice shot overall but perhaps the motion blur is a little too subtle for the challenge. The sea looks wild because I see motion blur in many places and you still got the static human subject on the bach. Would've liked to see a bit more blur near the shorline. Not as easy task depending on the time of day this was taken, working without any ND filters.

Nice work but needs more contrast.

Great idea, but lacks contrast. Feels a bit washed out (no pun intended!). Best wishes and good luck!

This doesn't seem to meet the challenge so much... I guess the waves are motion blurred... The colors are a bit soft...

The beachcombing figures enhances this photo. Nice breezy day!

Beautiful landscape, but motion blur?

great shot, but i think a color balance adjustment to take away the blue cast on the hills would really improve it.

The blur in this image is not all that evident, and your score may suffer for it.
