Falls of Falloch.

A lovely place Gordon. I wish I was there. there are 3 things I would suggest to doin the future to make this type of photos come out better:
1) Make sure that the highlights in the waterfall are not blown. If you did not have a strong enough ND filter and if you the smallest aperture and slowest ISO, you could have gone with 1/4 sec exposure rather than something close to 1/2 or 1 sec exposure which I think you use. You would get something closer to "horse hair" rather than "cotton candy effect", but that is OK.

2) Get in closer. The waterfall is too small for the frame;

3) There seems to be a colour mismatch between the sky which is heavy with clouds and bluish and the land which is bathing in warm sun.

I rather like the wider composition, the colours in the sky are off.

Thank you for your help. I really appreciate it..

I like the composition, the shape of the water mimics the shape of the sky and the waterfall in the centre anchors the composition together. I agree the sky is quite strong in colour and maybe toning the blue saturation down and looking at the luminance to lighten it up a bit ?
