Also think a portrait composition may lend itself well to the scene with the stream of water acting as a leading line to the waterfall

Either way it's a lovely shot
I forgot to reply to this. Thanks Jeff, I agree with you about the saturation, however, added saturation was absolutely minimal (to counter the way RAW files are quite subdued straight out from the sensor) most of the colours popped using curves. I'll attach a couple from the same place, but these are of a local War Memorial, since it we are getting close to Remembrance Sunday.

My first thought was it looks to have a lot of mid greys and needs to be pushed more black and white. I had more of like this in mind.

Of course it depends on the look the photographer was after.

I was trying to go for the slightly painterly older type look, slightly sepia without going too far

Like your version as well

Here's the original if anyone wants to have a play.

I reckon it would be better with a small crop as well to the right hand side, lose some of the cats flank and some of the distracting twig

Off to have another play myself
