While this one does give us a closer view of a portion of the falls, I much prefer the first image that you posted of these falls, Ram. This composition feels as if it is tilted (probably because of the angle of view?) and I am wishing for more water in the rock bed below the falls...but that's just my opinion :)

On the plus side, I really like the details in the walls and the gold sheen on the left side. Very nice lighting and exposure!

I like the reflected light off the back wall. Was it a sunny day when you were there (with the falls in shade)? I was there much later in the year (early Oct.) on a partly cloudy day, and I didn't see anything like this, so I'm wondering if it was the weather, the time of the year or both that produced this effect.

Kerry, It was sunny but without sunlight falling on the falls directly at this time. The vegetation was absorbing much of it.
