 This was an extended exposure taken at 1 AM in the morning on an evening that was almost a full moon. I thought that the blurring of the water suggests a calming cool mood as well as a feeling of emptiness.

Greetings from the Critique Club

This image is only OK in that it does manage to convey some sense of emptiness. The wb is unappealing. The comp is OK, the wb is unappealing and the image is far too small.

Once again, you are shooting wide open with an ISO of 100, changing only your shutter speed. You have a ton of homework ahead of you, starting with learning how to shoot on Manual mode.
