Unfortunately I didn't get to vote on your image during the challenge. I think your biggest problem was a lack of light. If the image had been bright and smooth then it would have scored much better. There were a lot of angles and lines to add interest to the photo.
If practical I would suggest going back and retaking the photo. Perhaps bounce light off the roof if you want to avoid reflections, but give it plenty of light. One other option might be to try and salvage the photo somewhat using "denoise" or some of the special ISO filters in photoshop.
This shot is to grainy and not very interesting. Did you think about using macro setting? Or maybe try a different angle. Take more then one shot. I said my critique know lets see if you will be mad because I was honest.
Well, it's a drinking fountain. It is kinda yellow, but a very pale version. Cropping seems a bit off (see upper left corner). Focus is good. Difficult subject/setting as there's not enough light (grainy), but more light would have just made the glare much worse. 5 Swash
