What do you think of this photo? I slowed down the shutter speed and it turned out really cool. I've been playing a lot with pictures recently and would like some feedback. Opinons, critiques, etc? Positive or negative are welcome.

Well, once again I had to go all around the mulberry bush to get to see the photo, lol. It looks good to me.

You have a silky look to the waves and it is very effective. It would have been better with more waves, but then we shoot what is present. I find that I learn a lot when I experiment with my camera. Trying is the best teacher.
Good photo, keep up the good work.

Yeah, it was really just a stop on the way home from shopping one day. I saw the water under the bridge and stopped to take some pictures. Didn't have a whole lot of time and there were a lot of rocks around so I got some of the rocks but this was intended to be just the waves, I like it. Thanks!

Getting to the back or front of the wave would be difficult but thanks for mentioning a different angle. I could get down to the shore bed and take it at the water level and that would make for a neat shot too.

Slowing down the shutter speed is a good technique. This will make a good background, but it needs a subject. Perhaps if you have a good photographs of a bird flying, you can add it to this picture (if you have the software to do it).
Continue to experiment. That's what being a photographer is all about. Anyone can point a camera and press the shutter, but when you compose and use technical skills, then you're creating art.

Thanks for the feedback. I consider the waves the subject - and I'm sort of confused as to why you would want me to put a bird in with the waves. Maybe a fish - or a rock, but a bird?

I am new to this site and enjoy photography as well. My subjects are butterflies. I really enjoyed your photo. Brings a sense of peace to me. I also like that it is in B&W. Well done. Keep it up. You have talent!
