Hi Carlos

Happy Spring.

I like the grotto- very atmospheric, good timing for the water flow- silky, not milky.

I'd have been inclined to either crop the rocks- the blur distracts, or exposure stack with a sharp exposure throughout . I imagine with a polarizer you'd bring out some good detail  there although the cropped photo might still be better overall.

Your thinking ?

Definitely a magical place. A very dreamy photo, I could easily get lost in it. The FG rocks do seen a little distracting in this placement, and I wonder if moving to the right may have created more balance.

Thanks for your comments.
Michael, I prefer the frame as it is, the stone on the left has for me very important interest in the whole photo.

Regards

The exposure time for the waterfall seems perfect.  The green details on the rock faces are very nice.  I agree with you Carlos that the foreground rocks are essential.  My thought is that the rocks do not appear sharp because of the effect of the water flow at 2.5 seconds; and I think this is fine.  The only thing is that there seems to be a bit of a creamy haze over the two rocks in the bottom right.  Perhaps darkening this area just a tad would help?  Regards, Jeff
