Always wanted to try a long-exposure running water shot. Didn't come out EXACTLY as I wanted, but couldn't get time to go back and reshoot.

Wow, the light in this scene is beautifully soft and diffuse, and you got a great glassy effect in that water. I love how the green lichen is set off by all those muted greys and browns. Gorgeous.

challenge met. i like the contrast of the mossy rocks in the foreground against the blurry water, nicely done. while technically ok, i have to admit that this isn't the most interesting photo to me. i don't know what to suggest to change though, either. sorry.

Lovely scene, captured well. Good exposure, dof, and composition.

I'm not really sure what's with all the milky water in this challenge, but I haven't really decided if I like it as a whole. You have used the technique well, and technically have done a good job, but I don't think it appeals to me visually. That's just a personal opinion however, I know lots of people really like it. This definately looks untouched by man, other than the effect of the water, but who's counting. Focus otherwise is nice, and the angle and framing/cropping is good as well. Good luck in the challenge.

I always enjoy these kinds of shots, where the water looks like silk. I may have been tempted to leave the shutter open slightly longer, but that's just me. My only other comment would be that I think this would have been great had that one vertical tree been outta there. Next time, take a saw along! :) Seriously, a very nice shot.

This made me cold. Was it cold? I like the long shutter speed but I especially like the fallen trees and natural debris.

Very nice presentation for this challange. Great colours.

Nice clean looking shot. Very crisp. I like the green in the corner without it this shot wouldn't be nearly as appealing. Well done.

This is absolutely georgeous. The power it emits from the rushing stream. The way the water has pulled everything across the rock on the left bottom corner adds so much to the whole photo. I personally don't see how you could have improved it one bit. Fantistic job. Great composition with execellent execution.

Nice picture, maybe I would have tried not to have the tree in the middle??
