This was my first time with slow shutter speed and fast moving water. I have always wanted to try it and I got a chance. I need to improve but I think they turned out pretty well for my first try.

Impressive! How long was your exposure, and was there any wind? These turned out really well. Thanks for sharing.

Both of those are really well done!

Very well done! I like following the water in the first picture.

I find the first photo to be more visually interesting, the way the water flows around the photo rather than straight through it. having said that i prefer the second one for its contrast between the white of the water and shadows and darker colours of the surrounding area. really nice effect with the slow shutter though. i think you should post your settings?

I agree with callmekat! The first is a bit more interesting but both are great Long Exposure water shots. Must have been a real calm day the foliage doesnt look bad at all!
I always wind up with a soft orton look to my long exposures.

i agree came out great for you first try. my first try and second were blurry lol

This is fantastic for a first try. As others have said, I like the first one because of the diagonal water flow compared to the straight one. The exposure is perfect. You really achieved a great motion//water photograph on this one.

These are really good. I haven't had the opportunity myself to try something like this. Thank you for sharing.
