Very nice, just water & rocks. I like this one better than mine! :)

Well Jammy you have just dobbed yourself in if we're supposed to follow the water as the water isn't centre weighted. Even when I try to follow the water that larger centre rock seems to pull me eyes.
So we have a lucky accident here a:-) Who cares wot works, works dunit:-)

Very nice water Jammy and the rocks look great too. Good choice on the b/w treatment and this does appear to be center-weighted doesn't it? CJ

Thanks for the feedback guys.
I went with the b&w because I wanted to concentrate the viewer's eyes on the motion and blur of the water and ignore the greens, blues and browns in the scene..
On another note this was/is my first long exposure of moving water :), happy how it turned out.

I wasn't so sure at first but I must admit me eye's do keep ending up on the bigger central rock. The B&W conversion looks really nice but I don't like these long skinny crops for some reason, apart from that a goodun Jammy mate:-)

There we go Jammy - some imagination and a good example of center weighted. Any reason you decided to go b&w? Just wondering - i like the b&w image as it defines the shadows. Great going. jano
