Bumb?

Beautiful shot Michael. To me, you've managed the water well but I am curious about the light source. Regardless, I like it!

looks interesting i like the water. i'm wondering about the light source as well.

Like the others kinda curious about the lighting. The Graduated ND doesn't help much on these kinda shots as you need a solid ND filter for best results. Interesting photo still.

That's a breautiful shot! Very impressive!

beautiful, the colors and long exposure are excellent!

The light source was just natural warm lighting just before the sunset. The light was just striking that mini waterfall right so it only lit up parts. I have two gnd's, I usualy use them for landscapes(oceanscapes​) and I use the darker one for sky and lighter one for ocean. I didnt have a full nd so I used both on ether side of the frame to make one full one. Only post editing done is WB and sharpening. Thank you for the comments.

The WB seems too warm. The water flowing should be white and it is near orange.

I suspect that is from the setting sun. I don't think it looks unnatural at all.

When I saw this first, I didn't think unnatural - but I was curious, because it does look illuminated in a different way, almost isolated like from a diffused spotlight - looking more closely at the water now, the lighting does indeed look very natural - and the leaves add an excellent contrast to the dark rocks on which they're sitting. I like this shot!
