hmm, the water looks much better in B/W, but I can't help feeling something is missing - not quite sure what mind.
Colour
Without colour, the eye sees shape and texture more clearly. It doesn't work for many shots but IMHO yours has enough shape, texture, interest and composition to stand alone if needs be. I also think b/w shots can lend themselves better to framing and hanging on the wall - they don't fight with the surroundings so much.
I like three the best two, the coulours and the still and falling water are great.
I took this one last week, not *strictly* a waterfall as its a runoff wier
This one was on the moors above rochdale, the problem is the sky is very bright, any idea how i can reduce the intensity? it should be blue. if i reduce the exposure the waterfall will get too dark.

If you email me the original (still with a blue sky) I will have a play and then you you know how I get on.
Lake
lake,
the problem is the sky should be blue but is very very bright white insterad, almost looks as though its been added in after with the lines around the edge of the bright area. I saw a topic earlier suggesting two images merged, one exposed for sky and the other the subject, unfortunately i dont have one exposed for sky, they're all white!
at least i know now though
thanks for the offer though.
