The bright and beautiful autumn colors of the different maple leaves are the star of the show and lead the eye perfectly to the beautiful waterfall. The calm water surface reflects some trees and adds to the relaxing and calming touch. Very well captured!

This is a beautiful autumn scene captured very well! With all the natural growing trees and rock formations finding a perspective that works can be a true challenge. But his challenge was accepted and won perfectly. The leaves on the stones and to the left add a lot of interest.

This photography reminds of japanese zen masters ink drawings with it's simple composition and great seperation of fore- and background. The elements stand for themselves and look beautiful. This photography is simple and calming to look at. Very well done!

I enjoy the composition of this photo a lot. The viewers eye is guided very well. Starting with the center of attention, the waterfall, followed by the curved pathway which guides the eye to the interesting formations in the background. Beautiful scenery!

This is an impressive shot! It captures the immense power of the water very well. The boat adds a great point of interest as well as scale for comparison and a story. Colors and composition are also very nice indeed.

This composition works very well. It captures the power of water, stone and nature (surviving und those circumstances) very well. Also it separates fore-, mid- and background very well, making it easy to view the beautiful little tree and bushes.

The softness of the waterfall adds a mystical feeling to the landscape. Also the slight sunshine adds just enough tonal variation. The flowers in the foreground fit perfectly. Very nice composition as well. Finally the waterfall has a perfect silky softness to it. Amazing that this was possible without a proper tripod. Very well done indeed!

The sun shining on this waterfall makes it look like fire or lava. This looks really impressive and it truly must be impressive to witness in person. You captured the magic of this special place and conditions perfectly. Stunning scenery!

This is a simple, yet stunning composition. The subtle variations in tone and hue make this pop, adding structure and interest. Also the cropped view makes the stone formations seem very bold and majestic as there are no distractions form just rocks and water. Impressive!

This is a calming photo with a beautiful natural scenery. The waterfall flows soft as silk. The dark clouds add to the relaxed feeling. I also enjoy the subtle variations in colors and hues captured just perfectly on those stones in the foreground.

This is a unique take of a waterfall as it transport mood and tells a story. The human figure adds to the power this photo transports. Also the high shutter speed capturing the droplets fits perfectly. A curtain of water, packet with uncertainty and adventure.

The upside down perspective is a very clever and creative view on this beautifully lit waterfall. Very well done!

This photography shows a very beautiful scenery and lovely colors through the sunlit clouds. I think, your composition leads the eye very well. My favorite is the color variations, between warm and cold hues, created by the sunlit sky. Great shot!

Such a calming image! I really enjoy this winter scene and the photo captures the massive stone formations and the power of the waterfall just perfectly.

This photo captured a beautiful scenery just perfect. The view is beautiful and the composition is spot on, guiding the viewers eye through the image. The landscape is rough and such are the clouds. It all works very well together.

This is very creative and abstract closeup on the theme of waterfalls! Through the long exposure the water looks like silk or metal, very surreal indeed but not easy to execute. However i this case it is done very well!

Very unique perspective of a waterfall, capturing it from behind, yet looking the the flowing river. The long exposure time makes the water seem like a very soft sheer curtain. The moss and autumn leaves add context. Very well done :)
