Nice pic. Long shutter speeds can do some really neat things. I can see the variations in the water speed.

Thanks Mark_A. I wasn't sure about the "slowness" myself but it was the best of the bunch that I took that day. Certainly the diagonals add to the impression of motion - and not just my opion now - he-he.

I think this pic transcends the usual furry water kind of shot very well, and I especially like the motion and angle of the water. This is one of my favorites and so I rated it very high in my vote. Well done for taking a usual kind of shot and making it unusual in the way you did it.

Bugs - Thanks for the comments The perceived fuzziness may just be the result of the size reduction, I tried to make it small enough for most people to view the pic without having to scroll the screen.

I rather like the combination of blur and stability, although the rock looks just a tiny bit fuzzy to me.
