Default Waterfall

Hi, I would like to know what could be done to improve this photo I took in Hawaii. It is not in very good focus. Any suggestions? Thanks!

The only thing wrong with it I think....and I'm no expert...is that the focus is soft...I really like the composition...others probably can give you more help.

Default water fall

I like the leaved on the side of the picture. Make it look like your peeking through the bushes at a newly dicovered water fall.

Great picture

I think it's pretty and nicely composed- the focus does seem a little soft- but it doesn't look bad. I'd print it large and put it on my wall!

I like this shot. It has a dreamy feel to it.
