exposure seems slightly dim in the foreground. maybe a morning shot or sun falling may have improved the impact of your title.

I believe that you are using the lighthouse to communicate a notion of guidance, so why not take the shot at night when it's working? It would also have worked better if composed as a poster, but tyou probably missed the rules update.

Focus is soft. And maybe too much sky above the lighthouse. Too bad you didn't get the words on the photo, like a poster - I know the directions were a little hazy on this, but it would have looked good in white letters over th

Great sense of perspective, but a bit soft for me. The darker parts need brightening.

Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi phaedrus...

That waterfall behind the bridge is quite impressive. There appears to be a lot of heavy water flow here for obvious reasons.

There are a few items that could possibly help improve this photo. The twigs in the lower left corner are not really adding anything to the composition, so composing a bit differently may help remove those. The tilt of the bridge also seems to feel slightly awkward.

The lack of color in this color image also feels a bit odd. Maybe the light was not the best at this time of day for this particular photo. It also looks like there are some excellent photo opportunities from the bridge itself :)

Interesting waterfall shot. Wow looks like the creek/river is really going. Gives a great sense of a fast moving body of water.

Excellent photography.I really like the different phases of the water, the mist above the waterfll, the power of the waterfall, and the rushing river beneath. Also the droplets hanging on the tree limbs. A powerful representation of Gods awesome power.

I really like the scenic here and I love the touch of color. The only think I would change is it looks like the bridge is running up-hill and the pier looks like it is tilted too. Just a little CW rotation is all it would take. Nice Job!

I like the waterfall in the bacground, the water spraying around it makes this shot feel wet (In a good way!)

The picture does however look a little dark to me, also the water at the front looks blurry.

To make the water at the front better you could have used a longer exposure. This would have made the water look silky. Or, if you had wanted to capture the water motionless you could have used a shorter exposure. [7]

I could almost feel the rush of the water. Nice shot.
