The sky is too dark / too much tonal contrast, I'd bring back 50% of the natural look.
That said, tremendous image !

Voted !

What a great composition. I admire your vision. The processing of the image has left it "crunchy". I'd tone down both the overall contrast and especially micro contrast / sharpening.

Hi Artur,

this a great image and while I really like the strong leading lines and composition, I do find the foliage on top left corner looks quite off to me, especially because of the bluish and very dark tones of it.

pretty awesome composition, wow, really wild!!!!
neat stuff!
seems obvious but not sure I've seen something like this before, which is rare to say

(something about the colors, especially greens, look a little glowy and also a bit hyper, but that can always be adjusted)

The texture in that water is amazing. You can almost see every drop whizzing over the edge!

I have actually never seen a photo from the very top of a waterfall that I really liked. It was always just water pouring over a lip, no real sense of middle ground or the height of the fall, and then a background that seemed disconnected. Congratulations on achieving such an amazing composition that to be honest gives me the willies! I'm not afraid of heights myself, but living near Yosemite in CA I have heard too many stories of tragic deaths due to waterfall accidents. So I can understand that being where you were is certainly no laughing matter!

Thanks a lot everyone. I was working on this new waterfall concept for quite a while. It took me some time to put this shot together. First challenge was to coordinate the weather. Second was more technical because this shot covers very wide angle of view. The final image contains 5 14mm shots stitched together to cover field of view, DOF, dynamic range in the sky and avoid wide angle lens distortion. Thanks for all suggestions about processing ( I rushed to post it before I left for the weekend). I know that the processing is a little crunchy and I have to work on that. Thanks again.

Spectacular shot Artur - love everything about it however best of all is the juxtaposition between the dynamism of the water going over the fall vs. the rest of the scene.
I tried something similar in Iceland recently, on the Svartifoss waterfall, but lost my nerve
