I think they are all good pics. Like many things in life, everybody has their own preferences, likes and dislikes. That said, I'm somewhere between 1 & 2, leaning a bit more towards 2. I agree with sinewsworn...I like pics that don't look like they've been post processed. I try to improve the pic without looking like it's been drastically altered. The less is more theory. Just my humble opinion. Looks like a cool spot to photograph.

Thanks for looking and commenting,Dale.

I love HDR, but I also love stop motion water. I don't know if you can do both. But you did well with exposure and color. Thanks for posting. David

I like them all but probably the second best. I also shoot a lot of waterfalls and moving water. One thing you might also try is using a ND (Neutral Density) filter to slow the moving water. I use either a 7 or 10 stop and with one of those, I avoid having to do HDR brackets, etc. It takes a little effort with these filters as you have to focus and then put the filter on the lens but it is worth it.

Thanks for looking and your suggestions, Joel. I did have a circular ND filter on,but I am just learning how to use it.

Three shots of moving water

I used Lightroom 6 to work on the 3 photos. The first one I adjusted the Tone Curve to strong Contrast.
The second one I adjusted the tone curve to medium Contrast.
The third photo is a photo HDR merge of 3 bracketed photos merged in to one.
I would like comments on the 3 photos, to help me get better.
