I'd crop the upper third, just above the falls at back, to make a more panoramic shot of it.
 
What a magical place. Please tell me there was no parking lot behind you! Don't tell me!! In my mind it's a quiet, contemplative place :smile:

Wow I'd love to see a print frm this 6x12 negative! Nice use of the format! I love the lightness of the vegetation.

I must strenuously disagree with glbeas suggestion of cropping off the top third. That would take out the upper left end of the nice "C" shape that is the main compositional device. If anything I'd like a bit more on both top and bottom, but I think it is very effective as it is.
