I had this pegged as a possible DrAchoo entry. Please take that as a compliment, as it was ment to be one. Very nicely done.

I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1121 images, I gave 98 of them an 8. Your image was one of those 98, placing you well within the top 10% for this challenge.

Nice motion blur on the water, but the bridge is nice and crisp and sharp. It almost looks like the garden in France that Monet used to paint many of his famous impressionist scenes of. So tranquil and relaxing, you've captured the scene so beautifully.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful exposure, rich colours and clear. Is it tilted to the left or is that an optical illusion?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 05:33:03 PM
Very nice softness to the water but I think some detail is lost in blown out highlights. It still keeps my attention though (7)

Great smooth water movement. Nice composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 02:50:43 AM
So there's taking a picture of water trails and there's taking a picture that uses water trails to create an effect.

This is the latter.

Very very nice.

03/13/2009 02:45:56 AM
You did a good job capturing the flow of the water and I love the dense green.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

good exposure
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 04:25:09 PM
I love the deep forest colors of this. I also like that we can see a little slice of the waterfalls from the distance in the upper left.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 04:24:41 PM
this is quite spectacular. really like the glow that the water flow/ribbons add to the deep tones of green...very very good

Soft and pretty. Nice.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 09:56:07 AM
I like this falls shot better than many. The footbridge gives some context to size, and I like that the colors are natural (you've left some blue cast in the water). Nicely seen and captured.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 02:56:12 AM
A rather predictable image.

Perhaps a lower POV may have added interest, or even a strong B&W conversion?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 02:25:41 AM
Very rich image.
