This is a full view of the falls I just recently posted. I will post some other things I tried from different angles of this falls. Slight crop from the left. I was shooting at 1 second for a real milky effect in the water on the dark rock and green.

That's a good looking waterfall. I like that you've managed to show the streaks of sunlight in the upper right. You may want to darken the burned out leaves near the upper right corner.

That's really pretty, Richard. Could see maybe burning the right side just a bit.

Beautiful waterfall! Wonderful cascades. I would agree with the other comments about the upper right hot spot.

Love it! Wonderful composition that has a nice balance to it. The shafts of light are killer too. Give a little attention to the bright areas on the right and you'll have a real winner.

Nicely done, there's a good flow to this. I would consider cloning out or cropping off the rocks in the bottom centre.

I really like the light in this one, and the full view of the falls. That tiny hot spot in the URC is a bit distracting, but I wouldn't crop it out since it would change your excellent composition. Burning it down or double processing the original file might work well.

Nice comp. Agree with darkening right side for better balance.
