I thought these settings provided some interesting textures. Comments and critique welcome.

Definitely an area I would go back to for more experiments like this, but then I like abstract art photography.
I like across the top and the right side the best, looks like smoke. Not sure about the lower left as the big dark spot looks more obviously out of focus than motion blurred like the rest.
I have found if you can get a solid interesting object into a long exposure water pic it stands out against the water almost in 3D. A sharply exposed rock in the middle of the flowing upper and right areas would almost look like an abstract Japanese sand garden or something.

Wow! Actually this is something totally different. Nice flow of textures. Bottom left maybe a bit of an issue as mentioned, but Good eye for something different. Well done.

Agree! I'm not a fan of the long-exposure, smooth water look: this is different and I do like it.
