I dont know about this one... it has a snap shot feel like someone has mentioned. I dont like how the sky is very very white (aka blown out)...its distracting and the boats around the boathouse have random colors which distract even more!
although the reflection is there and is captured...it does not seem to be the main subject matter which in this contest it should have been.

I suggest you also try to have the shot level..it lookes to lean like the tower of piza

what i suggest if you wanted to really score high on this was to zoom in on the reflection and only allow the bottom half of the boathouse to be shown..although that is just my style and my not seem to be of interest to you it would have helped reduce the distractions of the randomness around the boathouse.

overall its a nice shot to have for your family to enjoy of what looks to be such a beautiful day enjoyed by your family! and I thank you for sharing your lovely experience with us!

Nice vivid colors in the boats. The image is a little unsharp a tripod would of helped.

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.
