I suppose low speed is still speed, though it's a fairly debatable
interpretation of the topic. Very pretty image nonetheless. You could use some
more elaborate clouds (they look rather like a flat plane) and the shading on
the island looks inconsistent with the lighting in the scene.

Simple but effective. Maybe the moon is too much big: it looks like it is
observed with a telescope

(To take with a grain of salt, I'm no pro.)

Some of the better images are simple ones.  The boat may be a simple model but I
don't see any problem with it.  It looks good.  The sky is a little too flat
looking.  The ground could use some character (ground objects) instead of just
looking like rock.

Very nice image overall. You might consider making the stars both larger and
fewer though. As it is now, I could almost be convinced they are a light snow.
Nice use of the rubber ducky - give them a tiny wake, and I'll rank you #1 for
the round. (:

Very relaxing scene. Very slow.

The image itself gives a very good impression. Im not sure the theme was well
followed however.

Dead off-topic no matter what you call it. That said, it is a beautiful image.

"Speed"?  C'mon.  Since you explicitly decided to "illustrate the =
opposite", this image is by definition off-topic.
What a shame, though, because this is a SUPERB image.  Quiet and =
peaceful.  The placement of two ducks in the moon's reflection is =
absolutely perfect.  The grayscale color theme is evocative.  The spotty =
sky areas bother me a little, but it took a while to notice this.  The =
moon seems rather too big, but I'll give you artistic license for it.  =
The small light on the boat adds a lot, although it might be nice to =
balance it with some equally small lights in a little cabin on the left =
shore.
Good work, look forward to seeing more of yours in upcoming =
competitions.  Try to keep them on topic, though :-)

   I like this image a lot. It has a mood about it that I 
can't quite quantify. Possibly a more fitting title would be 
'Alone'. Anyway, I can see the 'slowness' in this image, 
but I'm wondering if the moon should have been so big. 
That's my only bugbear, as the whole image is good. 
Nice one.
