Beautiful take on some great locations, Kevin. I was just up in that neck of the woods ten days ago.

Super shots, Kevin. I really like them all, but Big Branch is particularly enchanting. I also like you positioning on Big Run; that lower cascade looks more interesting than the actual waterfall.

Very nicely captured, Kevin. Apparently these waterfalls were shot at different days.
Elakala and Keeney Creek falls are my favorites but all the images are extremely nice.
I am heading to the Southern WV, near the New River Gorge area this Thursday for a few days,
but I am afraid most of the leaves turned the color to brownish or fallen.
I am just hoping not much wind...
Thanks for sharing gorgeous waterfalls shots!

These are all superb! At first I was especially drawn to the first image, but the more I look at each of these, the more I liked every single one of them. Very nice! Thanks for sharing these.

Hey Kevin,

You have some really cool shots here. I am trying to pick out favorites, but it's rather hard task as they are all good. I will go with #2 being my favorite here.

All these compositions offer something unique. I think #2 doesn't quite belong in this set.

I like #1 with the caveat that the leaves at bottom frame don't feel like they have enough room.
Ditch #2, there's nothing very special about it-- especially compared to the others in this set.
I would be tempted to crop in from the left on #3 to bring more focus to FG/BG
#4 I really like the framing and how you've handled this scene.

Majeed, thanks very much for the comments. Regarding #1, I wouldn't disagree about the leaves but there was another pool between me and the leaves and I didn't have any room to work with. I guess I could have moved the leaves forward a bit.

I have had some positive comments about #2 so it stays.

I tried your suggestion regarding cropping #3 and agree that it does help a bit; I appreciate the suggestion.

Thanks again for the constructive feedback...Kevin
