Wow! beautiful! I love this. It's hard to find three falls in row here in California, maybe none.

Very calm and peaceful. Well balanced composition, my eye follows each waterfall through the shot.

Very nice comosition and use of shutter speed to obtain the sheer effect of the water. However, I don't like the artificial look of the blue in the water. I've taken a few waterfall and cascade shots myself and understand that it is very difficult to overcome the blown out whites in the moving water, but I prefer more of the blown out whites to the artificial blue look. I've seen this before in my shots after I've post processed using the shadow/highlight tool a little too much. With the addition of the seemingly oversaturated greens it becomes a little to unnaturally colorful. I've also seen these colors in someone else's shots and it will be interesting to see if I am right about who took this shot.

Beautiful photograph and composition.
The water seems to have a bit more Cyan in it than I would have chosen and think it may have looked a bit better reducing the Cyan saturation a bit.

Technical: the lighting, contrast, coloring and composition all work very well for this shot!
Creativity: i love it because you captured more than one waterfall...but it looks like it would be hard to just capture one...very pretty!
Score: 10

The water texture is quite nice but find the blue and greens overly-saturated.

The green vegetation could have using some brightening up, especially in the fore- and middleground.

Composition: 8 - Great, with the big waterfall in the foreground and the smaller ones at the back. The only thing is the left one appears to come from nowhere.
Technical: 8 - Great exposure, the water is really smooth without being blown out. Great vibrant colours too.
Creativity: 7
Appeal: 9 - Its such a refreshing shot and really nice to look at :)

Overall Calculated Average Score: 8
