This a view from the top of Noccalula Falls in Gadsden, Alabama. You get a little idea of how high up it is with the people and the ducks near the water.

Strong composition, Frank.

Leads your viewer's eyes right to the couple.


Caveats?

Made mention of this on-site tutorial to you in some other comments. Once again, and to make life easier for you, here is a link:

"Faking the HDR thing..."

The reason I make mention of it is that your exposure is lil' off.

Overexposed, that is and in short.

So.. to give you an idea of what playing around with the settings/technique contained in the linked tutorial can accomplish.. downloaded your image here and gave it a go myself.

Here are the results (hope you don't mind):

"A View from the Falls - Reworked" (Highlights/Shadows adjusted)

There was sufficient photographic data overall that via the technique/adjustments.. the overexposure was tamed for the most part. Save that of the larger white'ish rock in the right-hand side. Although, on this note.. sunny day.. one could expect this naturally and to a degree.

Again, just some creative/editing food for thought.

Frank, I really like this image, the people give it a super perspective, if you gave it some darkening by level adjustment, or perhaps using a program like topaz lens effect you would have brought out the beauty of this shot even more, in my humble opinion, it is a bit overexposed, but what a beautiful spot.

A good perspective and lovely colours in the photo Frank. I'd have to agree with the others on the overexposure.
