the foreground is hogging the picture

I think you have a great venue for a shot but the cropping/ perspective you chose the trees overwhelming the falls 6

I think the waterfall should be much more prominent in this pic than it is

I think the trees are taking far too much attention here, and didn't notice until a bit later, the people down below.

i like the perspective and sense of size with the kids dwarfed by the falls. the lighting is pretty harsh and the specular lights on the stream can be distracting. the biggest problem, imo, it the crop. way too much on the bushes which honestly are not interesting and only take away from the real subject

Too much trees and the sun is way too bright. you might try some filters for your lens.

I think more focus on the falls would be better.

Trees overpower the setting...

The inclusion of people is good to show just how massive the falls are.

Quite a contrast in scale! I did a double take when I saw that those specks were people! Very nice.

interest scale. the people really gives it a sense of scale. that's a huge waterfall. i wonder why the less-interesting trees take up most of the image?

too much space wasted on the little green leaves

Without the people on the rocks providing some scale, I probably would have looked at this and said "ehh". They really add to the shot.

Good array but way too much foliage for the main subject.

The trees are so prominent that I only noticed the falls after I started looking around the frame. A narrow vertical crop focusing on the falls with perhaps a little more foreground showing would have been nice. the people in the shot give a nice size reference.
