A lot can be achieved by filing out the photographers comments. I helps us know or understand what you were trying to achieve when shooting this photo.

On first glance I was not fond of the angle of the composition as I find it to be a little to fast for the serenity of the subject. A polarizer would have done wonders for this photo as well and would have taken down some of the highlights or blowouts in the water from the overhead flash or sun. I would have like to seen this photo taken with a faster shutter speed to eliminate the milky look in the water as I find it takes away from the transparency. I also think you'll find it should make the photo more crisp/clear and not loss/lacking details as it is right now. I do however like the leaves bunched like that as that is the way I see it in nature and it gives a natural appeal to this photo. I think the photo may have had greater appeal if the water flowed from the right side top (instead of top right) to the left side bottom. It would have slowed the photo down and drawn the viewers eyes thru the photo slower creating a more pleasing feeling as it crosses the photo from right to left instead of top to bottom as it does now.
Good luck and keep shooting.

The blue and white from such mountains in the bg is always so striking. The muddy brown of the foreground hill taks a bit away from that.

I think, it would be a much better photo if you had viewed the cold mountain alone...

Why can't I walk out my door and see scenes like that? It's just not fair I tell ya. Great shot. 10

Amazing mountains. Great subject. The mountains seem to be lacking in contrast. And the muted tones of the hill detract from the picture overall. Maybe try upping the contrast, or converting to black and white. Or crop the hills out, make the photo a panoramic and just focus on the mountains.

Striking image; however the foreground seems blurry...almost like it's photoshopped in there. Perhaps a point or two of clarity would help?

Nice capture. I Like Sophie from Carbondale showing the whole mtn. But you did good.

Water Fall

Comment by pa_cuthbert:
If I were to see that fall with my own eyes, I'd collapse in awe, but the rock (background) doesn't contrast very well with the slow shutter speed capturing the water fall. There's a missing feeling to this picture.
