Keith, that is amazing for handheld with ND8. Very crisp,. I can taste that mountain water.
Steve
The water looks very nice and 'alive'. Do you have some more information of the photo like EXIF data?
About the crop: In my eyes the big rock in the middle is a bit too much forced to the top of the picture, maybe you should give it some space. I wonder what that would do to the photo.
Nice one
Thanks JK, I agree with you regarding the large rock, it does dominate somewhat and probably could do with being slightly to the left and a tad lower, I am still very much on a learning curve regarding composition, it does not come naturally to me I'm afraid
