Beautifully timed capture of not only moving water but also the complete scene. We can see water in all it's forms from vapour all the water through it's solid form of Ice in this photograph. The jagged edges of the ice contrast beautifully with the smooth soft effect of your long exposure image. The camera height is just perfect to give the ice enough stature in the image while still keeping a perfect view the view of the sea body behind it and the use of a 14mm focal length has helped to stretch out your foreground nicely also. Congratulations and great capture.
Perfectly timed photograph, fantastic focus and perfect shutter speed. The depth is stunning and the detail is amazing. I can only imagine a photograph like this must be something most wildlife photographers wait half a lifetime to capture. Congratulations and I hope you have this hanging on your wall at home.

As a seascape photographer I love these images where you have to play with your shutter speed to get the desired effect all the while watching out for those large swells as they can sneak up on you very quickly. The burst of water breaking over the rock and the swirling of the water before you give this shot great texture. Congratulations on a beautiful photograph.
A stunning photograph of a gorgeous location and one we must all know by now, beautifully captured and edited. The long exposure adds a a gorgeous moving water effect to the image and the snow being blown of the mountain makes this photograph truly special. Congratulations on capturing a great photograph.

There certainly is some moving water in this image with balloon busting and the water flying in every direction it's a great shot and the fast shutter speed has helped to capture all that water motion also. Great lighting and I love the way the balloon nearly looks like a flower as it's bursting. The clean up was certainly worth it.

If you’re looking to demonstrate your mastery of shutter speed, then moving water offers that opportunity. Fast shutter speeds can freeze the majesty of a waterfall, and allow the viewer a glimpse that the naked eye is denied, and long shutter speeds can render a turbulent sea subdued, turning it into an opaque, matt blanket with an ethereal feel. Moving water is found elsewhere - in our homes, gardens, and in industry, amongst others.
Stunning photograph and the mood the mist in the background is just awesome. The water spray reflections and mist all combine beautifully to tell a story and the mood in this shot is fantastic. Congratulations on an amazing shot and it just goes to show nothing beats being in the right place at the right time.
