Holy Crap you got a great score and comment from Zeus!!!

I have to say, this should have scored higher. It is one of the most beautiful nature shots around on here. The emotion that you get from looking at it is outstanding. The delicate mist, the smoothness of the rocks and the round curves that lead your eye. The sheer force of the water pounding down and shaping everything that it touches over the years. The colours are muted but so enriching.

I wish I could go there!!

Remarks: a magical subject which benefits greatly from the wisp of illuminated spray above its cusp. I've taken this image into PS and flipped it horizontally to place the darker tones (the weight) to the right. I proceeded to crop two thirds of the area above the wisp and approx. one third of the waterfall, between rock and margin. I'd consider the same experiment, just to see what gives.

Nice composition and exposure. Good job controlling the blown highlights.
