I'd love to know where this photo was taken. I would be interested in vacationing there myself some day.

The mottled light on the people in the foreground is distracting. Under the given lighting conditions I think that composing the shot so that the figures were closer to the waterfall would have produced a stronger photograph.

What an inviting location; what an inviting photo - pulls the eye into the pic, looks cool and wonderful.

beautiful

the focus seems to be more on the surroundings and less on the family itself. looks like a fun time though.

such a beautiful waterfall shot, the family seems almost an after-thought. very nice shot.

Simply beautiful. Great job! My only negative comment would be the DOF on the people is a little poor and the shadows make them less distinguishable (but I realize the distance makes that very tricky). Beautiful locale and great composition. Nice work. 9

I really wish you had gotten closer here. After all, what was the shot about, the waterfall or the family?

Pretty

Great spot - family a bit lost in the shadows

my eye is drawn more to the waterfall than the family. Ideally the family should be where my eye is drawn for this challenge. Seems a bit blurry also.

I wish the people were in better focus. The falls and the surrounding rocks are a beautiful natural spot, but overall, it makes it a tad too busy for me.
