 Shot in Swallows Fall Maryland, my favorite place to hike, Very lettle editing, a bit of a crop and a bit of saturation. Beauty for me is about light, For it is in the light at so often vision comes.

Interesting capture of the light and the water spray. This photo could be improved by being more in focus and not having the light blow out the detail of the rock on the upper left.

IMO, I don't think it is beautiful. Nice try.

This is a good caputre of action. I like the water spray. The upper right is over exposed, fried. I think it's too bad you couldn't have cropped that part out or moved to a different location. It distract the eye from the real beauty in the shot. Hopefully you can shoot this again. Don't give up try again.

Interesting take on the challenge. I see the water is in focus but because so much of the image is made of other strong elements their softness takes away from the presentation. A shot like this is really difficult to acheive due to the slowness of the shutter. The only thing I can think of is try a higher ISO and smaller aperature. Course that is my opinion. One of my favorite parts of the image is the water drips on the left. Beautiful!
