Great image. I like stance of the individual in the picture. It would have been great if you could have done a time elapsed shot with the man standing like that. This however, is still a great shot.

A beautiful composition, Jan, filled with lovely shades of green. I like the angle of your shot and the sense of scale that the man adds to the photo. Well seen.

I like this waterfall that looks like coming from nowhere. The man gives us the correct scale of the waterfall. Good shot, Jan.

Nice composition. The greens are great. The texture is great. And the mist from the water seems to fill this atmospheric place. The water is captured very nicely. Nice movement to it. And I like the scale of it all in relation to the person. Nicely done.

Nice refreshing photo.
I agree with Jan, having the man in the middle helps appreciating the dimensions of the waterfall.

Astonishing shot Jan ! A point of view very well choosen to take this scene. The man seems so small against this waterfall. The light gives nice details and contrasts to this shot. Very well done !

I just love waterfalls, Jan, and this is a splendid view. Beautiful "curtain" effect of the double falls, great inclusion of the man to provide interest and scale, and I like the lush greens into which this scene is dipped. Very nice.

Beautiful waterfall view. I just keep thinking in a long exposure here to soften the water effect... It would be superb.

Good POV showing not only the waterfall but also the surroundings. Some more brightness and just a bit more saturation could boost this photo.

Hi Jan, hope you had a nice trip, nice to see you again. The composition is wonderful here. Nice placement of the waterfall, a human presence giving life and scale, beautiful lighting too. I like well saturated nature pictures, but this is really a wonderful shot, I like it very much.

Beautiful shot Jan;

You've composed it very weell, and used a good shutter speed to capture the flowing water beautifully.

Well done!

Nicely done Jan. The water falls nicely withing the first third of the image, and you include the solitary bather midway to add a human element to the image.

Well done,

Regards,

Everything is nice, here, Jan! Great POV! Nice ligths, contrast and colours. Many interesting details. Very good exposition for the falling waters. Good timing to capture the guy looking down, meditative. Simply wonderful composition! Cheers!
All the best!
