Motion in the Ocean

In line with this month's overarching theme, I took the opportunity to experiment with motion capture on a recent visit to the ocean.

I'd be interested to hear what others feel about these
- do you prefer the more abstract images or ones that have clearer content?
- do you have a favorite or two?
- do you have any general thoughts that may help the group or drive a discussion?

All were taken with an ND6 filter to allow a shutter of around the 1/10 sec area.

As always, I appreciate input from all photographers, whether just starting or seasoned pro.
And of course I respect negative comments as much as those more positive - that is how we learn and push each other to improve.

IMHO, #3 and #6 have more energy than the others. Were these mine, I suspect I would crop somewhat more severely and play with the color and contrast a bit.

As for participating in this theme, I went back through the archives (50 years, so it took a while) to see if I had anything to contribute to the conversation. In the middle of some thousands of images taken on or near the water's edge, I found a grand total of two images that included surfboards. This one is from Atlantic City in 1969. Not relevant, I'm sorry to say.
