the 'water' looks really unnatural, like it is just a filter or something.

Seems very highly sharpened - they are all outlined with halos -, as is the ball.

love it - great colour, texture and just the claws make it very cool. Would have loved the focus to have been just a touch further back but still excellent

The brickwork really works well to make her pop out.

Some more light in her eye/ some catchlights is the only thing I'd want to change - maybe with some on camera flash or a reflector to throw some more light in there

I like looking through the out of focus, close up frame, and it certainly meets the challenge. Often I see shots like this and feel it is a stage, just waiting on the subject to arrive - this feels somewhat like that too - a person, some detail that would lift this scene to a more visually interesting level. The scene is well set...
