Crazy crazy. I looked at some of the top photos and I just don't understand things here anymore. Was hoping you'd get a 6+ with this but oh well. A beautiful shot no matter what!

Nice! Shooting against the light is pretty hard, and this is done nicely. The saturation feels a little artificial though - especially the rich green on the right foliage. Love the smooth rushing water.

Nice composition, I like the slight lack of focus. A tad too green if I'm being honest.

Overall, this is a beautiful scene, especially with the sun burst shining through. But the blurriness of the trees is very distracting, and taking a lot away from this image in my opinion.

I get the composition with the title but maybe a bit less foreground would make a better perspective. Love the saturation in the colors.

Light on the stream great view...but a bit blur 2me and the orientation should be better if follow 1/3 rule, imho.

What aperture were you at? I'm guessing you knocked it wayyyy down because you didn't have an ND filter handy? -- I know this because I can see every speck of dust on your sensor - and you've got plenty of dust on that sensor.

Outside of that issue, you've got some very strange color things going on, and a generally overprocessed feeling to the image... 5(E) for great effort.

Slightly too oversaturated for my taste though the perspective is novel because it looks like you were standing in the water. I can feel the urgency of the stream because of it.
