This is indeed the coast at Campbell's Cove near Geelong, Australia. I find this image very soothing but it is lacking the WOW factor to score well. Enter or not enter?? That is the question!! But then the knockout starts next week, I'd better lower my average!

5.9 at 50, more than it deserves.

I don't care about this image too much but it was a long exposure - 8 seconds. I wonder why it only changed the waves but not the creek water. Weird. Some kind of resonance?

Apparently not, the water was flowing too slowly.

I see what you are going for here, but I feel that this scene is so powerful due to the dynamics of the water movement. The fast shutter speed has ruined that dynamic, and given us a static image.
