Imo that could be a wonderful backdrop to a foreground subject, which is currently missing, Kevin.
How about the wife in a mermaid pose? Or a butterfly on a flower? Or a drinking moose or (black) bear. Anything!

LOL - Don't disagree. Sometimes, capturing what is there is sufficient in itself.

Shutter Speed: 1.3 seconds
Aperture: f/32
Focal Length: 28 mm
ISO 100
Canon 20D
Tripod Utilized with Remote shutter release

I'm sure there is some refraction due to the f/32 aperture, but I didn't have an ND filter with me.
It didn't come out too bad...

You could've lowered the ISO, Kevin.
And if you have a polarizer you could use that too as an ND filter to open up the aperture, variably, up to 2.5 stops.
Using both you would have gained up to 3.5 stops to play with. In that case that photo could've been f/8, or f/11. Your lens's sweet spot!

ISO 100 is the lowest the 20D will go. The most important aspect for me was the 1.3 sec shutter-speed necessary for the 'milky' effect for the falls.
