this was taken at Coorg a very scenic place in Karnataka India. i slowed the shutter speed to capture the smokiness in the water flow. please tell me how best this could be shot i am an amateur.

I really like it you did a great job blurring that water. On minor thing I would consider next time is that branch on the left of the frame that is sticking out over the waterfall it's starting to creep into where the water is blurring. All that would be needed to correct this would be a step to the right before taking the picture. Since I can't see what the surrounds looked like this may not have been possible, just a minor distraction and not really a big deal.

Looks like a very lonely place. Do you have EXIF data for this image?

Thank you for sharing.

Nice job. The branch doesn't bother me. That part of the water looks a little over exposed anyway and the branch tones the hot spot down. I'm glad to see the 7D info as I read reviews that you can't get a sharp image from a 7D. Yours seams to be just fine.
