Wolf creek
I tried really hard to show how beautiful this cascade is, not sure if I suceeded. Not real happy with the results.

Is that HDR? If not, a curves adjustment on the dark end of the scale might help matters. Also, the water seems to have a weird magenta cast to it, at least on my monitor.

Huh, the water looks like it has a green cast on my monitor (the whole image has a very slight green tone for that matter). Definitely needs some work on the curves too. Composition isn't too bad though.

I like the shutter speed and location but the processing is throwing it off a little bit. It looks like the shadow/highlight adjustment was used which may be adding wierd colors to the whites.

I agree, looks to me like to aggressive use of the Shadow/Highlights tool. Almost looks like it was shot with a flash. The water is blue-green on my monitor. Basically I like this shot, just needs a little work.

Great comp and the falls look good. But, oopsy... the colors are sure off... Perhaps setting the white and black points would help regain a sense of order to the colors?
