I really like the contrast, intense saturation and the textured feel of this shot.

Interesting shot but lacks depth. Maybe change camera angle?

To me, this just doesn't pack any "punch". It doesn't scream "30 seconds" at me.

This subject doesn't need a 30 second exposure or id doesn't add to the image from what I can tell.

Nice contrast of color good that it was not centered.

long exposure doesn't add much here.

Nice color, focus and contrast...but nothing about it lends to the notion of "30 Seconds or More"

Nice study of a fern and colors work good. Focus is a little soft for this composition. Since there is nothing in this image that viewers can associate with being a longer exposure they will probably give this image a lower score.

Not sure what I am looking at in the exposure time here??

Well, the image doesn't really take advantage of the long shutter speed.

Fairly good image, but I think in order to do well in this challenge you need to visibly take advantage of the 30 sec+ exposure time.

I like the simple composition, but the image doesn't really do much for me, it's a little too plain. The plants show a bit of motion blur but only enough to appear out of focus, rather than the result of long exposure.
