it looks like this site quncil could use a little bit of common sense here..what crime have I done?
I understand your frustration and I still think you have produced a wonderful image, however I see no reason for you to question the SC's common sense. The advanced editing rules couldn't be any more clear. Using PP to introduce motion (not just blur) is mentioned specifically.
does gussian blur permitted?
anyway, I agree with leo it looks like this site quncil could use a little bit of common sense here..what crime have I done? do you really think that small amount of blur on the waves isn't correlated to advanced editing?
what is the difference between layer mask /dodging/burning and blur??
This was my highest scoring image, so I'm pleased you won the blue. However, reading your description I fear you may have fallen foul of

I guess we will know soon enough seeing. Fingers crossed!
How'd you get such a soft look to the water with a shutter speed of 1/125? I wouldn't expect that degree of blurring at that speed.
ETA: Just spotted your comment about having added motion blur to the water. I share Lawry's hope that your image is validated. It would be a shame to see this disappear from the front page.
