Default Ooo, I found a waterfall, well, kinda

It was late in the day and I slapped a polarizing filter on to limit the light even more, and got what is really my first attempt at a "waterfall" with the surreal water movement. Which do you like best, the B&W or the color. I wish I had another element to this image to really make it compelling. Maybe I can find a duck I can add to it

Thanks for your input!

These are so beautiful Alpha. Just the right exosure to make that water so dreamy. Lovely work my friend.

Both are great but the first is my favourite, the colours add another level to the photo to make it spot on. The water is just perfect.

Both are great! I think I have to give the edge to the color version.

Thanks, friends. It looks like the color version is the clear winner.
