Harry, this is very nice. I've never found shooting river scenes in full sunlight to work well for me, but this is excellent. I like your inclusion of yourself for scale and a bit of action.
The small bit of white foam on the left edge toward the bottom distracts just a bit, I might clone that (I think cropping would take too much off the grasses above).

Thanks Craig - The shot wouldn't have worked as well in other types of lighting as I needed the directional light to highlight the textures of the trees and created a dark, shadowed area for me to move in front of. The sunlit water allowed the whites to pop more. Getting the slower shutter speeds for the water was the challenge.
