Photo 1 appears to be somewhat out of focus.
The fact that this shot was taken at f/29 doesn’t help neither. Above f/13-f/16, aperture starts to degrade the resolution. My 75-300mm could go to f/45 but picture quality was horrible!
But I understand also why you raised your aperture that high. You just have to compromise somewhere when you want a long exposure in direct sunlight. When shooting silky waterfalls, I highly suggest a ND or polarizing filter.
About the second picture, the colors seem to be a bit on the cool side.
This is the same as picture 2 except it has the original sky. Tell me what you think about the sky change and if you think I did it well.
I think you did a great job. The clouds add a nice touch to the picture. Again, maybe editing the sky to warmer colors wouldn’t hurt.
