Default Boomer Waterfall
Let me start by saying this is my first post here. I am new to the forum although I have been reading lots of the the advice you guys have given others here. I took this shot yesterday in the Boomer Community of Wilkes County, NC. The lighting wasn't ideal, but I happened upon this place without a tripod handy. Please tell me what you think.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks so much for your kindness. It's always been a dream of mine to be a professional photographer, I just never had the time with having to get a job and all. I got my first SLT this past year and this was my first photowalk. I've made trips to take shots of places I knew, but yesterday I just parked and started walking. Thanks again for making me feel welcome.
