Ah, these symbols of small-town America. Personalized watertowers. I love 'em too.
You've got a good start here, but execution didn't quite make the grade. On a bright, sunny day, I'm frequently reminded of the photographer's slogan: "Sunny 16" An aperture of f16 or lower is frequently best in capturing a scene like this with less danger of over-exposure. If it's easy to bracket your shots on your camera, that is a good help too in coming up with a correctly exposed image. One last trick: a polarizer can take the glare away. If your camera can use one. (Edited to add: I see your new camera is a dSLR. Now you can do all this stuff!)
I like the way you showed a suggestion of the dimple in the peach and can only wish the designers made that leaf more pronounced. Nothing you could do about that. ONe thing that does stand out - those utility poles in the background. A few steps one way or the other might have hidden them. But that's not my call. YOu know the terrain. I don't.
apart from the use peach i dont think there so many special things about this picture. next time try getting it at a diffrent angle. maybe editing the colors a bit.
