D7000, F22, 1/6 sec, tripod, shutter release.

I like the concept here, I might consider cropping from the left to eliminate the rail, that sets up the trail to the eye to the fall

Bob,

If you took away the waterfall, what would you like about the picture? To me, the waterfall is such a small portion of the image, it isn't the subject. The rock face next to it is underexposed and has almost no detail. About 3 or 4 times more of the image is black than is waterfall. Most of the picture is green foliage. While the green could frame the image nicely, it's too much for the waterfall. The handrail in the lower left is a distraction. Getting the right exposure for direct sunlight and extreme shade is difficult.

Really tough exposure situation. I agree that the falls should be a stronger part of the image and the other elements just be used for framing and not so prominent.
