Composition : I've always been a big fan of diagonal lines, and there are plenty here. I like the lines on the shore paralleling the lines of the branch, which oppose the reflection of the branch.

Exposure/Lighting : As others mentioned, the tip of the tree seems overexposed. I wish there was shutter speed / ISO / Aperture info so I could remark on why I thought it may have happened.

Focus : I don't see any problems with the focus. Well done.

Post Processing : I was wondering if you considered this shot for a Black & White? It has all the elements of an image that might do very well without color.

Emotion/Challenge : On first glance, I have to admit, I was lost. After some thought I realized that motion didn't mean dramatic or even fast motion and that the ripples on the water definitely meet the challenge. Way to think outside the box :)

Opinion : Peaceful, relaxing motion. Great slant on the topic.

The tree is a bit overexposed but the cxomposition good.

I think that the lighting is a bit blown out on the stick. Definately shows motion though, and your focus is ok. Angle and framing/cropping are also nice. Good luck in the challenge.

Tree branch seems a little harsh and over exposed.

I really like the ripples of the reflection in the bottom left corner.
