These falls are at the end of a 3 mile hike and are a tad difficult to capture in the summer as the only real access is on a platform that has been built for viewing. Unfortunately, in summer, there is a lot of traffic to view the falls, and I wanted a slow exposure which meant waiting quite some time for a "quiet" time to take the shot.

Your composition is nice. The water falls look good. I think this would be the perfect image for image blending or HDR as I am a bit bothered by the tonal differences between the right and left side of the image.

It is a shame you couldn't get off the platform and move just a bit to the right to capture the falls. Looks like a wonderful place to visit. Great choice on the SS choice, Don. If this is close to home this is well worth revisting when the lighting is a bit more even. Just a thought of course. There are also a few dust bunnies in the falls that you might want to clone out.
