Sorry Mike, I see your point but the main subject seems to be the leaves.
I would unfocused them.

I agree...too much foreground. Personally I would take those leaves out altogether because their contrast distracts from the waterfall itself.

I like it, the leaves make it different, but that works for me.

Thanks all.

I actually like how the leaves seem like the focus. Nice job but i would also like to see how it would look with the leaves out of focus.

With the leaves out of focus it wouldn't work - it would be a shot of a waterfall with all kinds of OOF stuff in the way. I'd crop the top and right to make it tighter on the leaves and waterfall.

I'm juggling here. I like the concept but here the leaves are the main focus, which is fine, but if you wanted the waterfall to be the focus, I'd show a little less leaves and more water. But just my opinion. Neat shot though

I also like the addition of the big and bold leaves as a foreground object but those saplings get in the road.

Same shot...with a colorful bird on those branches in the foreground would look ideal. hmmm...perhaps buy a fake bird, place it on one of the branches and re-shoot. lol...

Another possible composition: ...it might look interesting if you focused sharply on the leaves and everything else has a gradually fading dof.
