Picture taken near a small pond on the University Of Colorado, Boulder campus at sunset. It's my favorite place on campus.

4 - Looks like good potential. If the focus were either on the foreground reflection or the bridge rather than the background (which looks like the strongest focal area), a variation in composition/framing, a more finely tuned crop and possibly a nudge rotation up on the left, make this better in my opinion. The coloring of the bridge and the light coming onto it, whilst nice, make this overall seem 'busy', especially with the dominant background, in my opinion. If you were aiming for the reflections 'under' and behind the bridge, then a much tighter crop top and bottom would likely have helped this, not sure. Up to 4 from 3.
