    Very nice, 1/8 worked well here to give the water that silky look without over doing it.

    Hi Don.. Nice to see the 600 being used for landscape...! Very impressive waterfall and you selected a shutter speed that works well for me too.. I like your composition, for me you have captured all the necessary elements and left out all the distractions..

    Regards
    Don

    I like the composition and textures here, Don, but feel it's a bit too "grey" for my tastes.
    I would play with dodging the whites of the water and burning the shadows all over a tad more?

    Hi Don, very nice capture with the 600mm. Perfect shutter speed for the cascade and I like the arrangement of rock at the bottom too. I would prefer the blacks a touch darker but this a personal preference of mine for B&W.

    What a lovely waterfall! I love how you chose the color filtration to blend the trees with the rocks.

    Hi Don,

    I as well like the 600 work for landscape. Have to agree with Morkel, this image needs some boosts. I would try the suggestions what Morkel says or would do contrast selective for lights and blacks to bring much more attention to the water.

    Ciao Anette
