Watkins Glen is spectacular at any time of the year, but especially in the Fall. This was taken with my 17-40mm f4/L lens on my Manfrotto 3021Pro/B tripod.
Levels, usm, and some selective color were used to bring out as much detail as I could.

Wow - another New Yorker (or someone travelling though NY). I deperately wanted to get down to the Glen for fall photography, but just didn't make it. This is a fantasticly scenic shot, and definitely makes me wish I'd made the trip. Your shutter couldn't have been better for the curtain fall on the left.
As they say in gymnastics ‘you nailed it’. Wonderful shot with great focus, lighting and a slow SS for smooth flow of water. With the addition of fall leaves makes it a great October shot. Wonderful!
Very pretty. I'm obsessed with veiling water. I like that you caught the stream, the fall, and the bridge. A circular polarizer would have cut down on the glare in the water and would have made the colors deeper.
You clearly thought this photo through before taking the pic. You're aware of composition and placement. The shot came out fantastic, btw. My only concern is that the photo doesn't have much color except for the limited fungus here and there. As a result, I feel it may look a tad better in B&W. That's about it. Everything else is on point. 8.
