Photographer's Note
I woke up early on Saturday and went to Lakes. Took same picture in Loweswater and then carried on to take same picture around Buttermere. First I took some shots from the road side with beautiful reflections and after that I decided to go on the othere side where are pine trees and waterfall. It was the best decision :) I found this amazing place and the lighting was such a great so I composed waterfall and lake together. I hope you like it as me. For me this is my best picture.
Slightly added contrast, that's all no other PP.
Used ND Grad and CPL filters, tripod.

Nice effect of long exposure on flowing water.
I like the way both waterfall and the lake below is placed in the photo.
Nice saturated, but not over-saturated colors.

Beautiful shot! The photo is nicely balanced between left and right, with the waterfall on one side and the lake on the other side. As you say, the light is fantastic too. Great technique to really bring out the best in this scene!

Hi Jiri,
Man oh man. The first emotion I felt when viewing this image was complete and utter jealousy! This is like watching another guy go home from the pub with the girl of my dreams. [Husband caveat: That of course is my wife so it makes me doubly jealous.] I've been skulking around the lakes looking for just this type image but have yet to succeed - and here you have done so brilliantly. Everything here works for me from the nice bright and well exposed foreground to the super color on the distant fells and sky. Very nicely captured essence of the lakes. You should be proud of this one mate and it deserves way more attention than it has gotten.
Cheers!

Hi Jiri,
I believe that this shot is an example of perfectly good composition. There are beautiful waterfall, lake with nice reflection and mountains there. In addition the quality is unbelievably high. Great job!
Best regards,
Sergiy

Buttermere is indeed one of the most beautiful places I ever been. And your photo does justice to the place. Your viewpoint is great. And that waterfall is a real bonus. You're true, it's a great photograph.
