Salut Julien. J'ai aimé l'image, et lui a donné un 7.
Something about it made me feel it was "soft" perhaps the darkness of the overall image or the moving blurred clouds and water. Sure, cloud/water blur is unavoidable in timed exposures but I really felt it had translated into the pier and the mountains. In hindsight (recul?) I was probably wrong, the pier and mountains are indeed sharp.

Never in a million years (as mentioned earlier). Glad that Siggy 100-300mm f/4 is working out! It's a great pieve of glass. Well done on a superb BiF shot.

Superb macro as mentioned earlier. What a great eye you have for macro images. Last 3 Challenges and your missing a ribbon by the narrowest of margins. Keep it up. Your work has made me look at that Tokina AF 100mm f/2.8 Macro AT-X M100 Pro D for Nikon coupled with the D80 and it's super CCD. 10.
