Looks like there is a little too much dead space on the left, other wise a wonderful picture. But I think your presentation could be improved quite a bit, the image lacks contrast on my monitor, I doubt the origanl does though, it is also a little small. But still a well composed interesting image.

Vertical format would have made this shot for me and probably answered some of the points made be Tait. Love the trees and distant misty forest "window". Keep shootin'.

The really interesting areas are from the falls up to the trees and light, the wide expanses of rock on either side don't do much, especially in this heavily centered composition. The blur of the foam semicircle is just enough to be annoying for me - a bit more blur or a lot less would be more comfortable for my eyes, which keep trying to focus on this prominent part of the image.

The thing that grabs me is as the previous poster said, but I would lean toward more blur...

I would also have shifted my position more to the left to eliminate the dark area on the left.

I like the forest in the background...

I get the impression that the water is flowing out of the bottom of the image. I would include a little more of the pool.

Good work. The eye is led into the picture up the stream to the beautiful "window" in the forest. As has been said a bit dead n the left.
