3 things...

A) Lots of compression. Your file size of only 53k killed a lot of the detail in this scene with compression. Use as little compression as you can get away with and still stay within challenge limits.

B) White balance looks weird. I know this is probably late in the day, but the yellowish cast still looks odd to me.

C) I can't stretch my definition of a mirror to include a reflection in water.

Added: After reading the discussions in the score thread, I went and looked up definitions of "mirror" from several sources. I did not consider a reflection in water to be a mirror. Several sources use that as a secondary definition, so I must now consider a reflection in water to be a creative interpretation. I think it only fair to reevaluate my original vote on this and give you some points back.

Also added: (4) I now see a vignette on the image, which is not allowed in basic editing, unless it was created in-camera. Your entry may end up getting disqualified for that element.
