Greetings from the Critique Club :)

I love waterfall shots and they are quite fun to do. You have done well with this one too. Your exposure here is right on the money. You did not over expose the water. There is still enough detail in it to see the water nicely. As I look at your camera settings for this shot, I can see that you are definitely in tune with what needs to be done on a shot like this. I generally use Aperture priority to get a longer shutter speed on shots like this rather than shutter priority.

I have a friend that does waterfall shots professionally.... You can see some of his stuff at //www.kevinadamsphoto.com if you are interested. He speaks at our camera club about once per year and he has two waterfall photo books out now.

The only 'risk' I see in this waterfall shot is the choice of black and white. Most viewers are going to beg for color on a shot like this.

Keep up the good work :)

a traditional mic would have worked better here.

Very nice capture of the water fall - good use of slow shutter speed for this. Nicely done.

Nice range of tones, composition leads the eye across the image. NOT trying to freeze the water helps in the context of this challenge.
