In the grotto

Looking for comments on how to improve this photo.

Overall nice photo, cool subject matter. However I was expecting a visit to the mansion. The glare on the water is pretty bad at the bottom of the shot. The log and rocks are somewhat dull, so is the moss. The waterfall could pop more and more detail would be sweet.

Perhaps there would be better lighting at a different time of day.

Beautiful. I might have used a brush to reduce the exposure in the window to the green at the top of the waterfall. Pretty place.

Sorry, there just isn't much there. Perhaps a wider angle.

Have a woman sitting on the log, body and legs facing left.

I'd go the opposite of Dave on this one....go tighter. Crop out the stuff in the foreground (at least until you can get that woman on one of the logs) and chop off the negative black space on the right.

This will leave you with a waterfall, colorful and patterened cliffs, and a splashdown for the falls at the bottom.

Thanks for sharing.

A couple things I notice. First, it needs to be straightened, your waterfall is coming down at an angle. It looks a little soft overall. Another idea might be to lower your perspective. The log looks like it is kind of coming out of nowhere. Maybe get down lower to the ground and make the foreground part of the story, or even take a step in front of that log and then get low. That might also help deal with that reflection in the water in your foreground.
