Nice lookback pose. Wish he was higher in the frame to get the reflection in.

I like the low position and lighting. The simple surrounding are nice. There seems to be several issues. ?Some cloning artifact at the upper edge and some along the upper rock line. Also-dust on the sensor.

Lovely light. I also see the cloning evidence and wish that the whole reflection was included in the frame...

I like the interesting lighting. I too wish for the whole reflection or maybe trim some off the top. Nice perky pose.
