This is a three image exposure blend taken with a Vari ND filter to blur the water at high noon! Converted to Black and White with Silver Efex Pro. Utterly boring as a color image!

NIcely composed. The strong diagonal constrasts well with the soft rushing water. The clouds in the sky are a nice touch as well. Exposure looks tricky but was spot on, I think.

This works well as a B&W, Kate. I agree with Kent's comments, too.

The composition is very lovely and really lets me experience the rush of water on the pilings. I do, howerver, feel that the highlight values have been pushed down too far. Since this photograph was made at noon time, the contrast would be naturally high and some of that should be reflected here.

Nice diagonal comp! The soft flow of the water really adds to the mood.
