Kirk,
The body of water looks fine. The environment is the problem.
Three thoughts.
terrain - a natural fall, even over a ledge, will have some signs of water 
scour (erosion, valley effect).
vegetation - plants like water - especially in otherwisedry places.
spray fallout - things get wet (and usually darker/more specular)
