First time I've tried a longish exposure to give a slight blurring of the water,
comments and suggestions welcome.
Regards Alan.

I love the first one! The light on the sand and rocks is great! Nice job!

First one is great...how'd you get that effect that softens up the water?

Beautiful shots btw. Love the softness of the first.

Love the first, however I am not a great fan of the "bluriness of the water" in this type of setting, om a waterfall I guess it would be a bit more practical but not at the shore. However that said, it is a beautiful setting, the composition is great, the light is super, and overall it is a lovely shot. Keep it up.

Many thanks Brian, basically as Fi20100 said - a longish exposure time.
EXIF details No.1 2secs., f22., ISO100., 17-40L at 40mm.
No.2 1/5sec., f11., ISO100., 17-40L at 40mm.
Hope this is of some help.
Kind regards Alan.

Many thanks KonTiki for your comments and thoughts, photography is a very diverse subject and everyone has their likes & dislikes. Very kind of you to comment.
Kind regards Alan.
