Not bad but a bit flat contrast wise, did you try auto curves or levels?

I like the perspective very much. Too bad there isn't a bit more colour or warmth in the wood.

I love the composition of this, and the subject is one that really appeals to me. There are a couple of things, in my view, that could have improved it even more:
1. The focus seems soft - two possible reasons spring to mind, either it is hand held at too low a shutter speed and a bit of camera shake has been introduced or you are focussing a little too far in to the photo. It may be worth spending a litle time reading up on hyperfocal distances - I struggle with it a bit myself, and am not the best person to explain! The effect of the soft focus is that the texture of the wood, which would add considerable ineterest, and increase the feeling of depth, has not been brought out.
2. I like the subdued colour palette, ad there are some wonderful shades in the water, but overall the photo lacks punch and would benefit from some levels adjustment (or if it has had some, a bit more tweaking), nothing major, just subtle adjustments.
Do bear in mind this is very subjective, and is just my opinion, so do take it with a pinch of salt!

no real symmetry in my humble opinion

what an apparatus! works as a metaphor for civilisation for me. did you think about pushing the contrast a drop and fading a high pass filter
