Very interesting image. I love the colors and the focus is good, but the shadow to the left of the image while providing some contrast, is too distracting IMO. I love the reflection and really think it is still one of the more compelling shots in this challenge. -- 7 --
I look at this and I wonder what is going on. The elements seem to have nothing to do with each other and it confuses me as to what my focus should be. Even though there are leading lines to the lower right intersection, the contrast of the elements draws me elsewhere but pulls me back giving it a tension I do not think belongs here. The statuettes also seem to be out of focus for some reason.
Nice concept. With reflections you have to be careful of what you pick up that you didn't want in the image - in this case it appears to be the roof line of a house? The composition is also a bit tight. The bottom left figurine's reflection should all be included, the middle right figurine needs more space to the right, and the top left figurine needs more space to the left (and maybe more up top). This particular piece of glass/mirror is compelling - try rigging it up with a solid white or solid black top cover (hang cloth or poster board over it), or try it on a nice blue sky, puffy white cloud kind of day. Focus is a bit fuzzy nearing the top left figurine - for this type of shot a deep aperture is helpful. The lighting and exposure look fine.
Right idea - just a little more attention to details... ;^) Good luck in the challenge.
