    LOVELY shot Gina , I really dig the composition here.
    My one suggestion would be a crop or clone of the bottom edge from bottom midleft all the way to the right. My eye is needlessly spending time on that spot. Hope that helps - Marko

    I like the DOF from front to back of the frame with the subject in focus.

    Lovely Shot DP. I like the DOF and reflection. The simple colours and water drops are cool.
    I agree with Marko about the lines on the bottom right.

    Thanks to all for the comments and C&C, i actually did take that out in my first crop, but thought it added something, but after looking again, i now see what you guys are talking about.
    Thanks for the honest opinions.

    Problem cropped out

    Beautiful! That change made a huge difference. The colour is wonderful and the simplicity of the shot makes it great.
