From looking at it, 2 things happened. The exposures are good overall. The histogram would show it as near perfect. Since shot 2 is the one in question we will talk it (the other 2 are great). It would show as balanced. The dark rocks and shadows work against the white water to even things out (according to the camera). The water is slightly overexposed. Between that slight overexposure and the moving water it shows as very bright with little detail.
A quick hit with the burn tool, or lowering highlight contrast in rawshooters might bring out a little detail and balance the white a little, but its all preference. If I did anything it would be burn it just a hair on the lower section of water.
Very nicely shot.
