A sweet idea. Because of the angle of view a lot of the impact of the shape is lost as it's obviously skewed by perspective. Compositionally this isn't strong for me with the heart floating in the middle of a somewhat nondescript pool though the patterns are somewhat interesting. The reflection at the top left is distracting though the dark green shadow at the bottom is OK.
