Nice shutter speed for the creamy water flow. Some minor compositional elements that you might consider changing. Slight crop off the right to eliminate the bright tree on the edge. The exposure looks well balanced, an overall nice depiction of these falls.

Very nice image, Jim. Excellent ss. I like the scattered snow. Agree with Harry's suggested crop because the tree's top is cut off.

Very nce water exposure Jim. I also agree with Harry on the crop from thr right. That dead tree on the right draws attention. Without it, the focus would shift more towards the falls.

Other than the already mentioned crop I think you nailed this one, Jim. The scene has a rugged look to it and the patches of snow are a nice touch. Your SS choice also works nicely Beautiful image.

This is a gorgeous spot and you did it justice, Jim. I also agree with the crop suggested by Harry, but I would also crop some off the left to exclude the leaner against the cliffs. Really nice image.

Here's the cropped version with the leaners removed from the comp.It looks pretty good. Thank you all for the suggestions for editing this image. Of interest is that I made a version of this and printed it with the cropped format well before I posted it here. I posted the minimally cropped version not sure about the leaning trees. So my initial assessment was supported by those that critiqued the image. Critiques are awesome---Thank you.................................Jim
