Your strongest shot here is the multi flowered shot. VERY nice. The open flowers are still a wee bit dark though so i would try to lighten them a wee bit.

"You have to milk the cow quite a lot, and get plenty of milk to get a little cheese." Henri Cartier-Bresson from The Decisive Moment.
In the white water shot, you exposure was too slow which just made it a mass of white blur. What works well is a polarizing filter and making every effort to getting some texture in the water flow. That requires some experimentation to get the right shutterspeed.
I also feel that your shots are on the dark side and would benefit from better exposure or some selective postprocessing.

Thanks for your suggestions. I was trying to practice lighting my subject with a flash light, which is why they are a bit dark. I should have exposed them longer. With the water shot, I was trying to get the misty effect in the the water, maybe too much?
The high tree shot by the way works best in the morning of a sunny day. The multiple flower shot would have been best with a low ISO of 100 for example and flash under-exposed by 1 fstop.
