I like the invisible diagonal connecting him to the buoy. I think I like this version. :)

Good blur I suspect improves the original with the wash of color running into the blacks.

I normally love bw but in this case the color has beauty lost without it.

Now THIS is great blur. I've done motion blur at night, but haven't tried it in the day. Love the horizontal line of boats, and the bright reflection in the water.

I love steam railroading, and this photo captures the whole experience of the water stop. The POV and the way you framed this one keeps the whole scene nice and compact without leaving out anything.
Here's how they do the same operation, taking on water, in New Mexico on the Cumbres & Toltec RR.

It's not as tidy, but it gets the 5,000 gallon tank on the tender filled up quickly.

The image is quite fun too and the processing enhances the effect. I would like to learn how some day. I love the tight framing.
