An overall great shot. The light colored hill/mountain in the back seems to draw my attention away from he water, but it's a minor concern.

The waves in the lower left corner are very interesting, but the bright area to the right draws attention away.

The water could make an excellent backgound for this shot, but I don't think you need to show so much. Move in closer to the subject, the water will still be easily recognizable in the background. Some more light would be also be helpful, maybe from a different time of day or fill flash. On the positive side, foxus is good and exposure was perfect for keeping the orchid in focus but blurring the water.

This is a great shot that was almost fantasic. I'll double check on another monitor, but the fall at the top appears to be a little blown out. Normally this would be picky, but everything else here works great.

This shot didn't catch my eye when I saw the thumbnail, but I like it a lot more after opening. The water dropplets are ok, but I think the closed eyes and look of contentment is what stikes me as interesting. It would be interesting to see a longer exposure with a lot of motion blur from the water. (7)

I really like the mood you have created with this shot. There are a couple of minor things you might consider for improvements:
My eye bounces from the looking down the river to the brighter gray in the top left corner. If allowed, you might want to burn top left so focus is more concentrated in the frame.
Maybe move to your right so you can frame with more to see between the trees and less of the bright gray on the left. I realize this may involve wading or swimming... remember to keep the camera high over your head.

I like that the full status is only visable in the shadow.

I like the bold composition and the nice highlights on the gun. The arm may be a little blown out, but you could burn that in a little if the rules allowed.

I like the composition, but I think you need to get you get more blacks darker to give the image a little more depth.
