Hey Johan. To make a step in the other direction and not only vote without give some feedback, here's what i think (as a maybe middleclass Photographer) about your Image:

For me your Picture its somewhere between an 4 and 5 Star rating.

What i like:
- The mood in the Images is breathtaking
- Technical everything seem perfect. For me the little amount of noise is absolutely alright.
- The Composition in General

Where (in my opinion) is space for Improvements:
- The white little distrcting Object in the left upper part. Maybe a Stone? My eyes immediatly wandering to this point.
- I'm personely don't like Hotspots as beautyful as they may be. Thats not the way to stand out from the crowd.

So i hope you can find something useful in my Feedback and keep in mind, that it's only my Opinion.
Wish you nice days in the Outdoors and Nature in General. At the End of the Day, that's everything that matters ;)

Thank you so much for you feed-back - really valuable! The little white spot is rather funny it is a sheep walking very close to the edge - but I agree with you that maybe I should clone that away! Regarding, hotspots this is the definition of that with a baking lot and restaurant (and hotel) with a few minutes walking distance. It was however a challenge to have other photographers in the frame :-)

Big thanks for your comment!

to add on Aljoscha, i would like to see more highlights on rocks volume specially the 2 foreground blocks which are too dark for my taste

do you mean the big green rocks on the left side or the ones almost at the waterfall?

Thanks for you comment!!

I would try to desaturate a bit the water long the waterfall. Now that I know that that point is a white sheep, I WANT it there, and I would title this picture as "a white sheep next to Skogafoss waterfall " :) . I love it!

Thanks a lot for your comment. I will play around with desaturation of the water!
