Hi Stuart, I like the way you composed the image with the falls on the left,showing a pool and finally the short foreground falls. Even lighting and warm colors add to the overall. If I was to suggest one thing it would have been a bit more room on the bottom. Well handled!

Beautiful scene with nice saturation. Crop seems OK to me. It does seem to be in need of a little sharpening.

[Andrew McLachlan]

Hi Stuart, I too like how you composed this image. It looks quite nice having the two cascades in the frame. Agree with the suggestions on sharpening and a little more room at the bottom, but I think this also works well.

I too like the flow of water from the falls left to stream right and some more room in the front FG would have been nice but not a deal breaker. Agree on some more sharpening.

[Morkel Erasmus]

agree on having more room at the bottom but the overall image is very pleasing and serene, makes me want to go there and wet my feet :)

[Roman Kurywczak]

Hey Stuart,
Great advice above on the room on bottom and sharpening......as Robert mentioned not a deal breaker and a touch more USM should be the final tweak. Very nicely done!

[Ron Bernstein]

Congratulations on the lovely image, Stuart. I was wondering whether a darkening of the colors at the top would keep one's eye from going to the bright yellows in the upper left corner, and keep attention within the frame. I'm not saying whether it would work better; it would just be fun to see if it did. I like the framing very much. Thank you for sharing this image!

This stuff is so so difficult, nearly there I suggest you reduce the highlight tonal contrast so the water looks better.
