I took this photo at the last minute, just to get the subbmision in. It was the first long waterfall exposure i have done, and i was very pleased with the results.

It meets the challenge well. The plants right at the top and the couple of bits in the water are sometimes distracting. The path the water travels guides my eye well too.
A goregeous photo, has an Asian flair to it, however, I find it to be a bit busy visually. My eye is drawn into all of the stones, and the movement of the water from one level to the next, so visually, it is not quiet to the viewer's eye. Gorgeous though! Great job from the 'Great Job Baggie'!
I can easily see the zen of this image. The play of earth and water is perfect. It has a lot of aspects but they tend to meld together into the two subjects, rock and water so that helps it boil down into a semi-simple photo. The lighting and focus is perfect. I do wish more of the top and bottom were cropped off, I can't exactly explain why, I guess it'd make the image more solid to me if it began and ended in a rock slab, like the water was cradled in stone. I gave a 6
