I thought this was pretty small until I saw the heron! It adds great scale and really helps the picture in a nice way

Obvious use of a tripod, or any other long-term stabilization tool (1-10 *is not the score of the shot though*): 5
This shot is almost right on the border of being handheld. Stiff arms and hands could almost pull this off. If you would have increased the exposure time by at least a couple seconds, the waterfalls and pool would have been a little more smooth. Your jpg compression doesn't help the surrounding rocks either - they look like you flinched. :-)

I find myself wanting more out of this image. I really like the scale the Heron is vs the waterfall.

Obvious tripod use: For me, it's medium. The water isn't quite smooth enough to be high obviousness.

Great to have the heron to give the falls scale in the viewer's mind. Before I got to it, I was thinking they were much smaller.

Good composition and content but image quality is a little 'artifacty'.
