Is that a puffin on the rock in front? I find the watermark a distraction where it's placed. If you moved it down and to the right so that it was in the water in front of the rocks it might work better. I am not sure what bird that is, but you might be right. I am experimenting with the watermark, so thank you for your input, I will be tweaking it a bit still "You are going to fall off a cliff trying to get a better shot someday"- My hopeful and loving wife

I think the rocks on the right side and to a lesser extent the foliage on the left are what makes it bland to me, honestly. The waterfall itself is beautiful and not bland at all, but as far as rock formations go they are kind of...blah. Same with the leaves, they are just kind of there and don't add much to the shot to me. I think maybe a shot from more of a straight on angle to the waterfall, and cropped much much tighter, would have done this waterfall alot more justice! I might even have tried taking it from a really low position, as close to the water heightwise as I could get (or if it was possible, even setting the tripod in the water and getting the camera as close to the water as you felt comfortable). I think mainly, I'd just like to to see more details in this picture. Those wet rocks look very interesting (especially compared with their dry cousins just a few feet away), and I always love the texture and feel of flowing water over rock, which I sort of miss out on because of the loose crop. Cropping tighter makes sense, I will give it a try, thanks for the suggestion "You are going to fall off a cliff trying to get a better shot someday"- My hopeful and loving wife
