Here's another shot from my shoot last month in Nopiming Prov. Park, Manitoba. I know some don't like long exposures, but the streaked clouds really helped this, IMO, and the smooth water helped to simplify the scene.

Beautiful image Raymond. Just as a personal preference, I would prefer a faster shutter speed to give more definition to the water flow but, as I mentioned, that's personal preference. Great composition. Well done.

Excellent capture, Raymond. While I love the silky texture of the water in the foreground, the lack of texture in the lake, and how similar it is to the sky, is not a preference of mine. As Bill noted, this is just a personal opinion. Overall, a beautiful, relaxing shot.

Another stunner Raymond. I really like the look of this. The sky is beautiful too.

Love the silky water and how you used something of a high-key rendition of the lake and sky. Nicely done.

Interesting elements here. Friend observed it looks blurry, but at 136 seconds, that's obviously the goal. I like the simplicity of this, though the lake seems a bit plain.
