No filters, but a very nice lens: Tamron 90 mm F2.8. This one is my favorite lens and I use it quit a lot.
Further this photo was shot (as you can see) with a Canon EOS 350D which is a nice camera as well.

The photo was shot very close to the water which made the water very dark and gave it that blurred feeling.

It's lovely, almost watery in appearance - like a w/col painting.
