I thought this piece was quite remarkable as a waterscape piece. What worked in this was the manual blending of your exposures. I thought it was pretty well thought out to have given a good range for us to see the whole picture. A very unique style that's very different from the usual HDR piece I come across. Even so, one can still see that the right portion of your scape still lacks brightening. Definitely a need to touch up there a little more.

I can't say it's a very original piece, since i've seen far better waterscape pieces that are a lot better. Still, it has a good scenic view, so much can be worked on here.

Technically, I believe a longer exposure would really give a more mystical effect with the flow of the water. What you could do to create a more brilliant picture would be to perhaps try making a panoramic piece out of this, panning leftwards from this picture. I believe it would give us a good flow of where the water's going from here.

It's pretty good framing to have the leaves from the top right of the frame to the golden fallen leaves at the bottom. Stretch it a little more, and i think we have a winner

I think that this photograph is a lovely capture. The first thing I noticed was the smoothness of the water, and you have depicted this nicely. Your use of a slow shutter speed really seems to bring out the softness of the scene. The diagonal angle of the rocks seems to work well in the composition here.

I think to improve further, you could have used an even slower shutter speed, so that the contrast between the misty water and the rough leaves would prove to be even more fantastic. Maybe decrease the exposure compensation on your camera if you find the shot to be too over-exposed. Nice work.
