Really lovely scene, but it doesn't speak too much of "minimalist landscape" to me, sorry.

gorgeous spot - i hope it scores well for you against the 'simpler' images - i think this meets the challenge perfectly

Although this technically DNMC with all the stuff going on around the falls I have sort of a weakness for waterfall shots and will always vote a bit higher on them So for that I will give you a 7! :)

Beautiful scene and nicely shot. Just not sure whether it fits "minimal landscape" or not??? (not scoring)

really nice shot, but I am having a hard time seeing that is minimalist, and I am pretty open minded. The photo is actually pretty busy, which in any other challenge would not be a bad thing. Sorry 4

Love the water fall, but this really DNMC. IT's way too busy.

Very pretty waterfalls and composition but it doesn't look like a minimalist photo to me.

You have the landscape portion down well. Good use of shutter speed to show the movement of the water. Nice exposure for the light, very evenly lit. I feel you missed on the minimalism. Minimalist landscapes ought to show wide open spaces and typically use negative space as a compositional tool.

This is a really nice image but I feel you have missed the minimalist part of the challenge that was required.

Not very minimal in my opinion, but I love waterfalls and its a great shot otherwise.
