Beautiful image, Gerald. I don't recall ever seeing an image from here. Really well timed for the fall color to go with the red rock, and nicely taken and processed.

Real nice Gerald.  Glad to see you posting a large view and providing specs.  Beautiful image.  The only thing I could suggest is to reduce the cyan in the falls and pool.  Looks a bit blue.  Other than that the yellows, greens, and reds look good.  I am glad you have backed off the saturation.  The sandstone in these parts can look overdone very easily.  If you see a red (maroon) jeep around the empty places, stop by and say Hi.

Beautiful capture.  Love the varied colors and really love the texture of the rocks.  Well done.

You're on a roll Jerry, perhaps your best effort yet.  Processing has come around and it's appreciated you including some technicals AND uploading a larger view!  Excellent.

No nits here. Love the comp; well seen and photographed.  Maybe a slight lean towards cyan in the water, but that's pretty minor.

This is your best so far, Gerald.  I like the composition especially the way that the sandstone lines in the foreground converge and lead my eye back to the trees.  I would suggest trying to bring out more of the definition in the water.

Very well captured, Gerald, and thanks for including specs. F22 allowed good detail throughout.  Might only suggest a slight bit more room at bottom for the outflow of the pool.

Superb colour combinations of opposing hues and a very strong composition which guides the viewer right through from front to back.
