Thats how it will be clean. Took this one with my new 50 mm 1.4 Canon on my Canon 5d. Was making some test shots for ljosmyndakeppni.is and perhaps it works in this compertition. Somehow I find it look nice.

The image itself is a bit dark. If there were more reflections from the water it would help some, but still lacks a 'center of attention' or focal point. I'm not sure I would have chosen to crop this vertically - but hard to say without seeing what you had to start with.
As for the challenge theme, I really don't see this as an image that was shot at an angle that 'made' the image which in my mind is what the idea was.
On a positive note, you did get nice sharp detail and the DOF is good.
