It looks like a Monet painting. Beautiful.

Interesting that I can see this printed on rough textured paper for a water color look or just the opposite - on metallic paper or on aluminum for a shiny, mirrored look. It's so pretty. Congratulations on the top ten.

Lovely. Beautiful colors and I like how my eye is lead through the image from the lower left to that patch of blue in the upper right.

Looks like a painting. A little bit of Impressionism? Very nice colors. Amazing effect.

love that it is all reflection and that you inverted it

Very nice - I like that you have included only the reflection and then inverted it for this Impressionistic painting result. I think the slight torn paper look for the edge works well here, too. Voted earlier.

Very nicely done. Nothing but the reflection.

I really really enjoy the way you did this. So many of these types of photo don't have character, but the way you composed this and created a scene that looks like it was painted is just magnificent.
