Michael This shot definately took a lot of effort. The first thing I noticed was the Sun between the trees. You must have had to move many times to get it just right. The way the picture is composed could not be improved upon. The other thing I noticed was that you took the shot displaying motion with the water instead of freezing the action. I like the effect. I think you put a lot of effort into this picture and it shows. Please do more!
Good composition, great touch with the sunlight starred like that. You didn't over do the whole water blur thing, good judgement there. The bridge seems a wee bit out of focus to me. If that is so, it might be possible to remove that as a problem by tweaking the photo to be more grainy or something like that - so the slight lack of sharpness becomes a feature rather than a flaw. The fact that you *saw* this photo before you took it says heaps about your quality as a photographer. Great work.
