The water flowing over the "Horn Rapids Dam" on the Yakima River always fascinated me. Now the Corp of Army Engineers has replaced the dam with a concrete one. What a tragedy for a photographer.

I thought this was a compu-gen, but it's real! What a great job you did! Actually one of my clients is the Army Corps of Engineers, and I am sorry to hear that they ruined something so lovely. You'll probably be glad to hear that with the (not really a?) war going on there aren't funds to undertake such projects anymore.

Wow, this is nice. I also thought it was made with a computer. The water effect is very nice. You captured it extremely well. Great job.

The world is changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was, is lost, for none now live who remember it. -Lord of the Rings, The Fellowship of the Ring
This photo should be heralded as one very good good reason for use of the 'blur effect' of water.
I must admit that I wasn't a fan of that particular kind of image. However ... however ... having viewed some others and now this one ... well, I am a believer. In the skilled hands and eyes of someone like yourself, you can 'transform' or 'interpret,' may be better, a scene and make it more than what it just is.
It has been mentioned above, but, words like 'silk' do immediately come to mind. To do so, so easily with just one look, is testament to how highly suggestive your image is. And a great one.
This one captures 'motion,' or 'flow,' equally well in my mind. Your title is excellent too. Really, really great work ... thanks.

The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes,
but in having new eyes.
- Marcel Proust
LIKE water subjects, and this is a prime example why. The movement, smooth silkiness, dreamlike quality.
DONT LIKE: if you were to draw a line separating where the water is flowing from and to... that structure... divides the composition evenly, or darn-near close to it.
IMPROVEMENTS? shift the picture plane to the right so we see a bit more of where the flow is going. We can visually appreciate when a change takes place with lines as soft as these, however, I dont think we need to see so much of where the water is coming from. Its more interesting to look at the water after the change in altitude-more contrast.

Do I dare say desaturate? Maybe just the water and then bump up the reddish colour in the wood(?) structure.
THANKS
Time to put up a high vote!

Interesting how we see differently. I looked at this image, immediately HAD to download it and stare at it and decided it looked sculptural, eventually worked out that it looks to me like blown glass, hard, rather than soft like silk. But I can see how others see silk, just that I didn't. Awesome vision to see it and great judgement to capture it as you have. Outstanding.

What an awesome shot! I love how smooth the water looks, which makes me want to look at it all the time...Wallpaper saved!
