i agree with Techo about how the leaf appeared over-processed. maybe it's meant to stand out among the rest of the photo, but it's a little overdone (maybe just by a tiny bit ;) ) overall this photo has a certain simplicity that is very nice!

Not sure what I'm seeing (a baby plant and some dog hair?) but I like the composition.

Interesting use of reflections in this shot. The angled composition works well in this case as it draws the eye throughout the picture and creates drama.

The colors are rich and vary from subtle to bold creating visual appeal.

The exposure is great here and well controlled. Post processing appears to have enhanced some already good contrast above while leaving the subtle details in the reflection below.

The challenge: The colors and the props you have chosen work well with the challenge. Normally one could argue that the diagonal composition wouldn't give the viewer a feeling of peace however in this case it does somehow.

Nice technically but no real wow factor.

It's an interesting shot. I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking at, to be honest, particularly what that line is that bisects the image. I think it's an unusual composition, but isn't completely effective for me because I find the diagonal line distracting, and would have preferred to see the whole reflection in the bottom right corner, instead of two of the leaves being cut off at the tips.

This is quite artful. Loving the duplicity the reflection creates. Good luck. 8
