Had the camera hanging upside-down on the tripod just over a pool of water to get the angle I wanted, and composition was a bit of a guessing game since I couldn't see through the viewfinder.
The scene here is somewhat distorted by the ultra-wide angle lens, the hill in the back is quite a bit steeper and goes up more than back like it appears here.

I like how the water looks like it is misty and slowly falling, then being surrounded by rocks and plants. the different shades of green also really catches my eyes
absolutely beautiful, one of the best of its type. the lighting and colors are perfectly balanced, and the detail in the shadows and highlights are exactly where you'd want them to be. this stands head and shoulders above the similar shots i've seen in this challenge. good luck!
7 - Very nice. Really like the greens. Frame gives it a 'poster' feel, which is 'good', but I wonder about a variation, especially for this medium - even if perhaps just a little 'finer', not sure. I know it is 720, but still, 'wish it were bigger'. Bottom part of the image, perhaps maybe a little too tightly cropped - but your call, obviously. Just seems slightly out compositionally/balance wise.
Perfect wall mural material - adding to my favorites.
Serene, rich and just enough motion in the water to make the shot not as static.
Well done and hope this beautiful shot does well in this challenge!
