I shot this with a 8 sec exposure. Had to wait until it started to get dark so it would not be overexposed. No editing has been done to this picture. This is the original photo.

I like the waterfall, but the rocks and plants really serve, for me at least, only as a foreground reference point, not really a frame. Maybe if there were also some foreground leaves or rocks along the side of the image or across the top of the image, or at least in one of the corners, then maybe it would achieve the "framing" you were trying for ... Just my suggestion. Nice water though.
This photo is very appealing to me -- I love water photos. We all seem to be struggling a little with the guidelines for this challenge, and I am trying very hard to be fair. This photo, as beautiful as it is, doesn't fit the challenge as I understand it.
