 First member challenge. I really need to learn PS better (I only have PS2e. I hope the voters see the slow shutter effects and the lighting on the stream creating leading lines to the waterfall. Not very obvoius leading lines, but there are a lot of lines pointing to the base of the falls. Just Basic PP and a bit of cloning for distracting elements..

Smooooth...
Perhaps a little darker/richer would contribute a bit more to the mmod.

Love the silky smooth babbling water. Intereting colors.

Not sure if this is leading lines, but great shot.

i really enjoy the motion-blur in the water, and like your framing. The falls look a little blown out though.

Ohhhhhh. .. pictures like this make my heart ache for the mountains. I want to be going there today -- instead of to my job in the Texas heat and humidity where there are NO beautiful waterfalls in the mountains like this :)

The waterfall is a bit blown out on my monitor (which usually views everything darker than normal), but otherwise an excellent capture!

The composition (particularly of the rocks) looks a slight bit snapshotish, but I really like the waterfall in the background, even though it is a little overexposed. The colors are god. The sharpness of the trees is very good considering this must have been a relatively long exposure.

The background seems a bit overexposed, but otherwise, it is a lovely shot.
