Waleed,

Welcome back, glad to see an image from you and hope to see more.

I like this image very much. The tonal range is excellent and I like the flow and composition. I must say though that I'm confused on scale. You say the water was very strong, but the cascade looks like it's only a foot tall and maybe only 6 inches of water at the bottom. Is this much larger than it appears?

Even without your description, this is very enjoyable. Thanks for posting.

Lon

Really nice shot, I like the nice texture of the water and the way it leads the eye.

The water and other highlights help my eye move through the scene. I like the monochrome treatment but could maybe see trying to bring out some additional detail in the rocks.

Love the tonal range here Waleed, and the B&W conversion works very nicely. I agree with Tony about bringing out a little more detail in those rocks, but it's nice as is.
