A pretty scene but not quite as strong an image - the foreground grass at the bottom left is too much in shadow for it to contribute anything more than just a sense of a dark smear. The lighting seems quite flat too - perhaps the early morning or late evening light would be more striking?

Stunning scenery! Grass in lower left a little distracting.

I like the frame/comp really well. What turns me off about this is the shadowed land/plants low-left. I think the shot would've worked well if the light was hitting them... If I were there, also I would've taking the shot from maybe a foot off the ground to really get some detail of the stream... with a wide lens to keep the top frame you have...

Tough one - Without the shadowed low-left, I would expect to see this image on a calender, or an outdoors magazine, etc... 5

The plants at the bottom are too dark and the image looks a bit flat. Curves and contrast woudl make this pop a little better.

This shot would have benefited from further post processing.

Majestic is the word I'm thinking of

Awesome rock. The image seems to lack contrast, probably due to harsh sunlight.
