Fairy Falls

Beautiful falls.  What a magical place this is.  I could see dialing down the highlights above the sunstar a bit, but real nice

You have to love those greens and the sun star is a wonderful additional element to this lovely waterfall, Daniel. I also like the SS choice. My only suggestion would be to crop out that bit of sky or clone in some leaves. Either way this is nicely done.

Lovely greens, sunstar. Love the composition overall and atmosphere. Must have been an experience. I agree with Ed. The crop will make it even better.

Daniel:
A great waterfall shot!  Shutter exposure is great at .5 sec to give a nice creamy look. I wish you didn't have the big dark rock in the middle bottom but you are stuck with it. I would clone in some leaves at the very top to cover up the bright sky. Overall, awesome image!

And a sweet little photo of the sweet little falls.  Really gorgeous and inviting. Perfect shutter speed, showing off all the many little streams of water. The sun star is a wonderful addition.

A lovely look at this waterfall, Daniel, with your ss choice letting all of the steps show well.  I also like how the lighting shows off the fern and the leaves above it on the right.  The sunburst is a fine addition.

What a great looking falls and the conditions you captured it in look great. I like the lush greens and the 0.5 sec exposure worked perfectly for me. The sunstar looks good too! I do agree with cloning in some leaves in the bright sky area above the star or a small crop. Nice work!

Daniel, this is a great waterfall image. Shutter speed looks right on, and the sunstar is nice. I seem to be in the minority here as no one else mentioned this, but it feels a little off balance to me. With the falls falling down and to the left and being closer to the left edge, it's heavy to that side. I might try a crop to just inside the large leaves that point down coming in from the right.

This has wonderful light on the ferns and the water Daniel. Love the nice soft flow. Beautiful. I've been to those falls and I seem to remember it was just about straight uphill for a good mile or so to get there. 

Gorgeous image.  Love your choice of shutter speed and the resultant motion in the water.  Lush greens. I would only echo the suggestions to address the patch of bright sky at the top; cloning in a few leaves might work the best.  Regardless, one beautiful image.

Wonderful Daniel. Great job with catching the sun star, and the beautiful greens.

I think the image could be warmed up a tad, but the fern on the right is perfect, and the overall comp is excellent.
