 I wanted to show the contrast between the still boathouses and the swift movement of the kayak.
Post processing : improve the contrast, resizing, etc...

It is actually quite easy to miss the "ghost kayak"; the exposure may be a bit too long here to really appreciate the action. Nice reflections though, I'm sure there is a nice potential here on a sunny day.

This would be a lot better without the "ghost kayak". Wish you'd shot this 20 seconds earlier or later.
