Not too bad. I might have veared a little farther away from the symetry by moving to the right just a touch. You handled the contrast pretty good on this though.

Clean and elegant. Good play between shadows and light. Interesting angle. Good clarity - I like the textures and details. Bumping from 6 to 7.
