 This is a beautiful photo, nice color and simple. You have captured the texture on the rocks nicely too. However, I see no motion blur in this photo. I see a blurry reflection of the rocks on the water. Since there is no motion blur, that could be the reason for your low score. I assume that you were just confused about what exactly motion blur is. Your photo, challenge theme aside, is very good. I think that the thick white border really adds to the image. The contrasting colors between the rocks and water really make the picture POP. I hope this was helpful.

		| | Now this is pretty.  I like the simplistic approach to this.  The border finishes it nicely. |

		| | Nice calm scene, the big white border adds to that feeling. The warm light on the rocks works well with the blue of the water. |

		| | I think the shutterspeed was too long to actually capture the motion.  The water just looks misty--doesn't really capture motion to me otherwise. |

		| | Good motiv, but it isn't showing in the photo. (Like majority of mine photos!) |

		| | This is lovely but I don't sense enough blur to really have much motion impact. It's simple and I like the composition. |

		| | What can possibly classify it as motion? Blur of slopping water at the boulders? It's so timid that the first impression is actually one of stillness, not movement |
