Beautiful photo. The contrast of ice and water is splendid.

In my opinion, you should have won first place. Your entry is more professionally executed in both composition and quality than the current first place winner.

Keep up the good work and better luck next time!

Wow, thanks very much!!! :) I honestly didn't know what to expect, it was my first round of pics with the SLR. I drove to the falls just to snap the picture. Didn't expect to make it into the top 10, so this is certainly encouraging. Thanks everyone who voted!

The waterfall is white and warm. The rocks give alot of texture.

Sharp, clear, wonderful light to this. A bit 'picture-postcard' but it is well-done postcard-y. I like it!

Nice motion in the water. There is a yellow cast on the ice, though, which is distracting (perhaps overexposed). Pretty good composition otherwise.

Nice location, nice smoothness to the water... I feel like it needs a little more of something for me to focus on other than just the falls.

Very nice shutter on this shot. Love how the water draws you through the picture.
