- water flow in centre and extreme right too blurry for my liking

Thanks for including all of your shot settings and it's information I can use for trying something similar.

Thanks for looking and your comments!

I would have liked a higher angle, but needed to get to the creek before sundown so went without a tripod. I would have shot it from a higher angle freehand yet my lens doesn't have IS and could only hold it still for 1sec shots which left the water a bit lifeless.

I agree, the shutter speed probably would have been better around 6-8secs.
Parts of the fall do looks a lil' blurry... The focus looks right, perhaps the shutter speed / water flow, giving it that effect of being OOF.

Thanks again for your critique, helps to have specifics to work on and fix for next time.

I'm glad the settings help, thought I would post them for interests sake atleast. Not all are real relevant though.
