This is a great image and good capture. My only prob. i think its a bit oversharpened. Also! Did you use a tripod? Use a tripod and try using a slower shutterspeed. I would revisit this location and try to improve on it.

Loved this shot, the only thing I'd have done differently is perhaps a longer shutter speed / smaller aperture if possible to make the falling water silky and smooth out the lake.

looks a lot like the falls in the main image of my site (www.fluxn.com), palouse falls. but i'm pretty sure it's not. beautiful photo, though. where is this?

Awesome capture, and though it does have a beach, it doesn't say "beach" to me. Think the title could be a bit better too...

Paradise. The greens are wonderful and the different colors is the water is a bonus. The sharpness of the image doesn't seem consistent however, portions look over-sharpened and others almost appear blurry ??

Beautiful photo but unrealistically over saturated especially with green.

A stunning location. The deep colours and even light turn this image into an invitation. Very appealing. An 8.

Luscious greens

This is lovely photo of beautiful location. I really dont see very tight relationship with the theme though. This is picture of the source itself and not of something on or closer to water source. Keeping this point aside - I'd have given it 10 (in isolation).8.
