The lighting may be a tad harsh, but the expression is genuine. I still can't help but to want to see the eyes.

Comment by Yo_Spiff:
It's got some interesting colors, and overall good, but it does not seem to have a lot of visual impact for me.

Yer killin me, here. I actually think you fell short on all three techniques. I'm not sure if this is Low Key, as I understand it. Not terribly shallow either and in terms of the rule of thirds, not the strongest example.

Strangely intriguing - I love the colors & tones,and the pouring of the water, the reflections in the pool and the slight foaming keep me intrigued. Weirdly wonderful.

Edited to add: I've come back to look at this again - I really do like it. It's so completely everyday, yet overcomes that to become something very special. Well done!

I think your intent was to have the puddle at the bottom be your main subject. But the lighting and lines lead me directly to the "waterfall" which is directly in the center of the photo rather than at a third. I also think you have too much light (in my opinion) to be low key. The photo itself is very serene and I like it's simplicity.
