a unique waterfall capture, and boy is that hard to do.

Very unique water flow. It has this feeling of mystery to the shot that is usually missing. A terrific feel and wonderful textures.

if this was sharper, it would have ruled. As it is, i like the colours and the long exposure but the softness hinders it.

If we have to have more examples of the effect of slow shutter speed on moving water, then this is at least the way to do it - much more interesting then all the other efforts.

Love this shot. Maybe a bit soft and slightly out of focus. 9

Interesting abstract out of flowing water. The big white blob at the top (where you lose detail) is always a problem when trying to show moving water, but I certainly like the bottom 2/3rds

I love how this water flows. In the future try and get your images up to 150 kb file size limit. it would have given more details to all those leaves. If you use PS, here is a helpful DPC tutorial to get images ready for challenges. :)
