i like the compisition of the shot a lot, esp. the way the leaves frame the scene. It might be nice if you brought out more of the greens.

You've done well here using the small aperature to get the foreground leaves and background in good focus. The resulting water movement is nice, but I'm more impressed with the long DOF. Maybe a tighter crop at the buttom for my taste.

I think overall it is a good shot.
I would try leave more space on the left. That way it gives the sense of water flowing from top right to bottom left corner in the frame. Also, i will try lower ISO, maybe 100 or 200. ISO800 gives too much noise.
If you go back there again, try ISO100, f16~f22. Just a suggestion.
Happy shooting.

thanks, you are right. Took one in auto (fast water)and this is what it gave ISO 400 f5.0 and 1/40
Plan to go back again. I went out on a limb to take some of these, not much wiggle room! Wish I could trim some branches back!
the last one 0"5 25 ISO 400
Cconcerning the noise, maybe my eyes are bad, I didn't notice it. daniel

Slight push on the saturation in photoshop wil give bit more vibrant colors...
