The water part of this shot looks good but it's hard to look at with the OOF leaf in front of it

Nice combination of leaves, rocks, and metal. Out-of-focus branch through center front is annoying.

The leaves in the foreground are rather distracting

I like the framing of the picture with the leaves, but I think more of the falling water being visible would have improved the photo somewhat.
also it seems a little too dark.
but it's nice and clear and different from the rest I've seen so far.

Lovely colors and nice composition. UNfortunately, the foreground is out of focus and that sometimes makes an unsurmountable barrier for the viewer. A tripod and a nice long exposure would have made this image pop beautifully.

Very little falls. Not a lot of water for a water challenge, the out of focus leaves in front are obscuring most of the water and are distracting.

i would move the big branch on the bottom so we could see more of the fall, the other branches are fine, and you would have a 10 from me.

the out of focus leaves at the front are getting all of the attention...perhaps you can try another angle???
