oooo silky smooth water and wonderful leadlines.
I might have been tempted to clone out the orange light reflection in the foreground as it draws my eye a bit, but that's just my opinion eh lol

Looking at your settings I'm guessing that it was quite dark.
F6.3 accounts for your very shallow depth of field leading to the lack of background focus, whilst the slow shutter speed 1/20s is going to make hand holding quite a challenge, well for me anyway lol.
If you did need to shoot at these settings due to light etc I would be tempted to move further away from the subject and then crop tigher on the image in this way getting a bigger depth of field. (The closer you are to the subject for a given F nos the shallower the depth of field)

I'm going to make a guess now that based on the settings and the shot I reckon you were at full zoom and about 1m away from the subject. This would give you approx 8cm of depth of field.
