Making A Waterfall Appear Natural
It is usually best to start waterfalls above eye as they will have a more realistic and dramatic effect, as well as providing the illusion of extra height. 
When making your waterfall try not to make it too perfect as water never falls down in a perfectly straight line. In real life, water will flow naturally around the rocks and possibly split out into yet another waterfall. It’s best not to make the water appear too still or smooth, as it will usually look more natural if it has ripples or splashes.
