ViewFinder Star letter Issue119 Milky water sours

Having just received the latest issue of Digital Camera, I read with interest the Star Letter. Having posted a similar topic on another forum some time ago. You ask' Is milky water a pleasing aesthetic enhancement or a crude and unnecessary distortion of nature'? I have to agree with Alex Brown, I don't understand why water 'has to be fiddled with'. I think it is at times a distortion of nature, I wouldn't go as far as saying it's crude. Some of the answers I received when I posed this question all seemed to agree, slowing down the water slightly made the image look less busy, but to slow it down too much made the image look overdone and milky. I note that the cover image on the latest magazine in my opinion the water has been slowed down/blurred too much I would rather have been able to look through some clear water.
Maybe at some time this fashion/fad might change?
