Ai Ke,
You have done well. Waterfalls are not easy as you found out. Yes, agree with the others on reflections.
Top add a little extra drama, maybe just add a few more slightly larger rocks on the left side. Although they are not quite "soldiers in a row," they do seem a bit too uniform. Test it out by using a piece of clear film (I use a half side of a sheet protector) to draw maybe one rock behind the existing line of rocks and a couple others in front.
Nice work.

Great waterfall, Cyril. Has a real cascading look to it.
Maybe just a bit more shading on and around the rocks at the bottom of the falls. They look too flat.

Another banner job Cyril!
I love how the mist covers the rocks and seems to come forward in a light mist to cover the closer rocks. Beautiful rendition Cyril.

Well now, this was a challenge.... having watched the class and made a complete pig's ear of my watercolour version of this class, I decided to have a go at rendering it in pastels .... What was I thinking?? The water spray nearly drove me to distraction and this nearly ended up in the bin on more than one occasion. But I decided to keep on at it and see where it took me. What a huge learning curve!! Still not 100% happy with the waterfall bit but I have learned so much from attempting it that the heartache was worth it

As always comments, crits and suggestions are most welcome.

Well done in pastel. Excellent
Recognized it immediately as the Howick Falls in South Africa

Cyril--yours is gorgeous. Fiona, I actually thought it was watercolor. This is great in pastel! Very crisp

Fi,
I feel your pain - I too struggled with waterfalls.
Actually, your falls look good, but the wall behind looks flat - needs more texture, tones, etc.
Don't fret, I think it's better than most people could do.
The rocks at the bottom on the right could be varied more in size and placement. But, they are beautifully painted.
