Been waiting a year to get these shots. The sun is lined up behind the rock for a few weeks in the Fall. Went last year but was too late.

Would appreciate C&C. I'm still experimenting with the PP and not sure that I am there yet.

Stunning captures. Exposures are spot on IMO too.

The last one has the nicest composition. I think it would have been better if there was a sunburst coming from the hole. Also, getting lower and including a rock in the foreground would've added some interest to that area and lead the eye into the scene better. Perhaps if the rock was in the sunlight coming from the hole.

Last one is a winner. I'd probably lighten up the face of the rock a tad though. (fill light in Lightroom would probably do it) ..

Love the last picture but it, and the 2nd, lack foreground interest. I think they would have been perfect if you'd gotten a bit lower and had something right by the bottom edge of the frame, a rock or 2 for example, as mentioned by someone else :)

edit: oh, and longer exposures. Personally I prefer it when the water is smooth and silky in these types of shots.
