I feel I would like to see a little bit more of the trees on the top or crop a little bit the water on the picture bottom. Stefano

Hi Sezai, this is an excellent capture. The flowing water looks silky. Good colours, sharpness and composition. Thanks for sharing. Umit

Fully agree with all so far. Excellent use of shutter speed and lighting. The light on the trees in the background is very warming, yet the water being darker looks very cold! I also feel that more on top would make this a definate 3 thumbs up! Well done.

Lovely composition, and I very much like the choice of shutter speed here. Did you have to use GND filters (or post-process differently) to maintain the detail in the background trees?

A perfect choice of shutter speed to allow a sense of movement in the water as it falls over the edge, but not too low a speed to destroy the detail in the water as it broils at the bottom. A nicely composed image as well.

The contrast the warm trees in the background and the blue water is nice. I kind of wish there was more on top. If the issue was a bright sky, then a neutral density gradient for the sky would help with that issue. I think you really found a wonderful vantage point of the falls. I especially like the left side with the water falling in a different orientation to the rest of the falls.

Not just another waterfall photo. Here, I think you have aced it! I'm not normally a big fan of the soft/silky look of cascading water, but your technique in this picture is superb and really works well in my opinion. The muted colours of the background folliage nicely complement the lighting, colour and texture of the water in the foreground. Bravo! Regards.....Dennis

Far above the average level of this kind of shots (silky water in evening light), this one reaches an absolute perfection IMO.

I'm particularly impressed by your exposure, with still rich details in the brightest areas

Composition rather classic, but the feeling to be 'in the water' provided by the lower left angle is an attractive addition.

Congrats, Michel
