Hi Peter,
That's a very pretty shot. Good composition, I like the way you've balanced the frame by putting the waterfall just off-center.
Good shutter speed selection, 1/30 has taken the edge of the falling water but you've still retained good definition. I'm not a fan of the really slow shutter speeds that some people use on falling water.
Nice work.
Regards
Peter

It is a simple but nice composition. I would probably wait for little softer light, to display more in the highlights esp. water, slower shutter speed would be nice. I also think that you might need a smaller aperture to bring the foreground rock in sharper focus.

Best

Very well balanced composition, Lalit up there has a few good points but I dont mind this light too much and besides that, the colors gloss over some of the things.

Black frame works really well.

Thanks for sharing
