Greetings from the Critique Club...

Hi Jeremy..

This is a nice water exposure... I love the fuzzy water. This one is perfect. In a lot of cases, the water will get too 'blown out' under long exposure. I like these examples where there is a good amount of water blur but there is also still detail visible.

The composition on this shot is excellent... The water just leads me throught the image from top to bottom with no distractions or other obnixious elements in the image.

Now let me whine a little....

I don't care much for the text layout... The 'falls' should probably be with the rest of the text... I do, however, see that there is not a great place for text on the image :)

Good work...

Excellent photo! Nice angle and crop. My camera stays on its side, they should come that way. This shot is takes your eye right threw it and back.

I think this has been cropped too tight

Clever idea with the type, but I don't think it quite works. I'd just right-adjust all three words and move them a little to the right from where wou have them.

A wonderful water picture. The wet rocks, the fall of the water - great! I think the font and color of the words could match the feeling of the photo better.

I'd find the text less distracting if it were all together in the upper right corner

not as keen on the font as I am on the shot. Lovely composition, I like the choice of portrait! :)

I think the font is too much, I would not use the inner bevel, plain text works better for my eyes. The shot is great!

Great slow shutter shots. Somehow the colour of the text seems way off for this type of picture. The falls tels me serenity, but the the bright orange screams out. Try a different, warmer color for the text. Jacko. 9 for the shot minus 1 for the text= 8.

I love that effect on the falls... so silky. Your font (choice and color) are a little unusual, though.... But the photo itself is cool!

This is an excellent image, the effect of the prolonged shutter speed is bang on. Very idyllic and inviting. The kind of photo I would expect to find on a postcard promoting the area you live in. However, I personally find the texting you have chosen doesn't fit to this image.

Lovely photo of these falls, with which I am quite familiar! The font you used doesn't seem to match the "essence" of the falls, but the composition and tones are wonderful. All in all, a very nice photo!

The text should say WHERE this is. City and State, etc.

Text color and font is odd.

Terrific photo but the text looks a bit odd.8

This is an awesome shot. My only suggestion would be for the text to be together. Either all at the top, or all at the bottom. Otherwise, very nicely done!
