Welcome aboard. A very nice shot to start us off. Perhaps a bit cool for white balance but otherwise a fine shot.

Welcome to NatureScapes! This is a lovely first image. I really love the image and the composition. While I agree with E.J. that the white balance is a bit cool, I actually really like the blue tone here.

Welcome to the site and a very nice image! I don't mind the cool WB at all and the comp with the patterns in the f/g rocks is great. I would personally tone down the brightness of the water a touch.

Welcome to NSN!
A wonderful first post here! I like the subject matter and good use of the long exp.
Like some of the others, I 'd also like to see the WB warmed up a touch.
Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Welcome to Landscapes! This is quite a nice first post. I like it a lot.

I agree with both the comments about WB and darkening the water a touch. That said, I like it as is as well...

Looking forward to seeing more from you!

Chad this is really cool. The slow shutter speed makes the rocks look as if they are rising from a foggy mist. Love the exquisite detail and cool bluish tones too.
