The point of long exposure waterfalls is to blur the flowing water. There can't and won't be detail in the water.
I agree with your statement up to a certain point however, the flowing water look can still be had without the whites being "blown out". I think this was better accomplished in the last photo.

The amount of blurring in waterfall shots is very much a personal choice: some like just a little, some like a lot, etc. Go with what you like. Your first shot has great possibilities, though I agree with those who say reframe it to make the falls bigger and off-centre. I would also look for sharper focus in the surroundings in that one: in all the others it's really crisp, but a bit off in that one. My favourite is the last but one: nice sharp surroundings, nice blurry water, and interesting lines.

These are a few shots I took using a Canon T3 and 18-55 kit lens. I have just updated to a full frame Canon 6D mark ii and a 24-105L series lens. I am looking for honest Critiqueing from you guys to see what I should have done differently. If you tell me the photo sucks then tell me why. If you just tell me it sucks with no explanation then im just going to think your an ass and not learn anything. Thank you for all your honest and informative feedback.
They are all stunners, but I especially love that last one with the water criss-crossing
Awesome
