I really like this shot, Peter.  The way the water is darker, and even brownish, just really enhances the subject even more.  The ripples in the water, the reflection, all of it just adds to the image.  Nicely done.

Nice subject. I like the quizzical turn of the head and the lifted foot. The angle is good, and the water offers a pleasant BG. The image is a little soft.

I agree with all of Phil's comments.  I do like the reflection and the water is gorgeous.
