1. I love the overexposed water - it adds strength to the photo.

2. The black and white is spot on. Can't see how it would look better in color - especially since it creates such beautiful silhouettes of the photographer and the trees.

3. The position of the photographer in the photo is perfect - you feel as if you're looking exactly at what he's looking.

4. The photo seems as if it was taken from within a cave which gives it some sort of natural framing. lovely!

5. 2 Additional Elements which makes this photograph wonderful are the shutter speed so that you can see single drops on the edge of the white. The other are the clouds.

Very, VER well done.
