imo, the action shot dominates over the reflection.

Too bad you couldn't run down there and shoot that mural close up. They probably don't look kindly on that sort of thing at the lanes.

The problem I have with the photo is the color and tone of the girl's top and socks.

Looks like a fun place.

Very busy photo. Unfortunately, the predominant reflections are in the 3D style graphics on the back wall and not from the ones on the wood surface in the bowling lane.

I think the girl should be in focus in this shot. She takes up quite a lot of the picture, and the shot is cropped for her.

The reflection draws less attention for me then the setting around it. More focus on the reflection would make this an excellent photograph for me.

Ok, Where are her bowling shoes? Drop a ball on her toes and you will never hear the end of it. Colors do not seem right here. Notice the hands. Perhaps a little too much color balance here. What are you focusing on? The ball? The little girl? Nothing here appears in focus. Looks closer to the ball as the focus point. When you have so much in the image and if only the small reflection is what is in focus, it does not do the image good. My thoughts only. Hope she got a strike.

Reflection isn't that much use here. Also would prefer focus more toward foreground.

An interesting idea. Too bad the flesh tones are so far off and the little girl isn't in sharp focus.

I like the pins with reflection, but it took me a while to notice. If there were more of that and less of everything else.

this is a great example of reflection without mirrors! It would have been much better without the child. She is out of focus and distracts from the theme of the photo.
