I have a feeling "some" people :) will knock this down saying that the waves aren't actually negative space and that this belongs more in a "minimalism" challenge. Might be a little dark, but I was really going for the look of the water.

The sticks look like birds in flight with their reflections.

My eye seems to like the waves more than the actual subject...they seem to compete for attention too much for me. The picture itself seems to be taken well, nice and crisp, the picture just doesn't seem to hold my interest.

Great reflection along the water, blends nicely with the ripples.
