You have chosen a beautiful subject and done a very nice job with it technically. You used the long shutter speed and I assume a tripod to get that flowing look to the water. There is detail in the shadowed rocks, which can be tricky to do with digital exposure. I applaud your effort by lugging the right equipment to a great location.
If it were my shot, I'm not sure I would have centered it quite so thoroughly. Compositionally, I've been trained to think about the rule of thirds, and to place the main subject off-center for more interest. The diagonal line of the rock projection saves this from being too static, but I'd like to see it cropped some on the left side. My humble opinion only.

What do you think?

I can just agree overall a very nice work! Good that you are back

kkart is quite correct to push out the green a bit more. the rest is great as it is.

I just have some more thoughts about the composition. I would have give it a try to move the camera more to the right to gain more of the very nice green stones, because on the left side of the image isnt sth more of interest. This emptiness disturbs me a bit + this part of the tree there up. Just some of my thoughts about the composition. I guess with post processing work there is no chance to achieve my thoughts.

Anyway a very well exposed shot! Congratulations!
