Challenge: Free Study 2012-07 (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Nikon D300
Lens: Nikon AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.4D
Location: Houghton Lake, Michigan
Date: Jul 7, 2012
Date Uploaded: Jul 29, 2012

 I used an nd8 and nd4 to create this 30 second exposure. The water was somewhat rough so it took 30 seconds to smooth it out. . I asked the two subjects if they could hold still for 30 seconds and I think they did pretty good.

Starkly simple with excellent composition. I love the centered figures offset by the leading line and mass of the dock. Voted earlier.
