Ed:
No suggestions, just a beautiful image. It should look great as a 
big print. The lighting is spot on for my taste. Bravo!

Beautiful cascading waterfall!  It kind of looks like the image has a bit of a green cast to my eye? Minor though. Makes me want to pull up a rock and sit a while there.

Ed, this is one of the best shots of Ganoga I've seen. Seems like there was the perfect amount of water flow to make all the different cascades. I would clone out the one small dark spot about midway down and off to the left slightly. It could be just a dark portion of rock but it gives the appearance of a dust spec.devil

What a gorgeous scene, Ed.  It looks so peaceful there.  I agree with Michael about the little spot that looks like it could be a dust spot on the sensor, but also at the bottom, there are just a tip of about 3 rocks that maybe could be cropped out or brought all the way in.  Just a thought.  I wish this shot was in my collection!

Outstanding Ed.  Really enjoyed this image.  We are a nice warm 100 today, and probably everyday for a couple of months, so this is very refreshing.  Love the stepped look of this falls and the SS looks perfect to me.  Beautiful.

A great take on this falls, Ed, especially with the lighting letting you keep detail in the shadows.  All of the "staircasing" in the falls looks great and I really like that last little step at the bottom.  I haven't been to Ricketts Glen in 20 years, but it is an amazing place and you've tweaked an urge to go back.

Thanks for your thoughts everyone, always appreciated.
Mike: Good eye to catch that dust spot, I had not noticed it until you pointed it out.
Mark: You should get back up there sometime; it is a beautiful area if you are into waterfalls.

Ed this is just so beautiful and soothing. I love the intricate network of falls here interspersed with all of the wonderful spots of greenery and layered rocks.
