Not sure what's missing here, it does meet the challenge, but it doesn't really have impact on me.

A little dark (or low on detail). That either has made it difficult for me to either has made it difficult to see the stopped motion, or it's just not there.

Might have been better taken in the daylight when a flash may not have been necessary.

The colors seem a little washed out to me...perhaps too much brighteness.

A little too much blur in the water for me. I would have preferred to see the water droplets frozen.

Nice Shot Brian. It was out of the box. Horses are not often found looking into a mirror. I immediately think "Who is the fairest horse of all?" Nice work with 14th!

I also thought this was just GREAT! I got a 10 from me. I anticipated it was going to do much better! I guess some just did not take the strategically placed flashes as backlight!

This was truly one of my favorites, of course, I just love horses! I had the same thought when I first saw the photo since the dark hill did draw my eye down from the horse. However, I scrolled the photo so that was cropped out, and it lost some of the impact. Taking that shoulder point out, also changes the 'look' and feel of the shot. Having that shoulder in there, gives her length and makes her apepar more statuesque. I decided the hill was a good contrast for the light reflecting off her her shoulder. Beautiful shot! Congratulations!

I hope you were working with a good zoom lens
