Comment by Yo_Spiff:
I gave it a 5. Composition is somewhat too centered for my preference. Not a lot of interest in the water, but it consumes half the frame. Moving the bridge and waterline down to about the lower third may have helped the comp. I also feel the golden tones are just overwhelming the shot. Perhaps a different WB would have brought out some other colors besides all that yellow.

Comment by cpanaioti:
Challengewise I'd say the connection is average and that the image is more about the skyline than the lines in the water which is probably why the image got a fair number of low votes.

That out of the way I think the scene is pretty but there is not really one thing for the eye to rest on as the main focal point. The buildings could be interesting but are too far away to carry the image. The reflection is interesting but to me, either not crisp enough to really draw my attention or blurry enough to create a more impressionistic image. Also, some of the areas of the reflection are too bright and appear blown out.

Comment by AJSullivan:
The 2 extra splash/drops at the top of the frame are too eye catching (due to placement and brightnesS) and they kind of take my eye away from the rest of the image. But in regards to water drop images, DPC is the right place for those, and its pretty good otherwise.

That spider's silk thread is distracting, and makes the difference (for me) between a 7 and a 5.

Whimsical piece...almost fairytale like. Nicely shot.
