Wonderful image. I love how the water just seems to be floating right out of the frame.

Beautiful texture on the water, and nice contrast between movement and stillness. 9

nice running water shot. It would have improved the shot by getting some leaves (one or two good ones) on to the rock in the fore ground for a bit more interest and added colour.

good exposure

I would almost be tempted to crop out the rocks in the foreground. It would bring the viewer right into the water.

Absolutely perfect shutter speed for that water. Slow enough to get the motion, fast enough to keep the detail. Well done.
