Did you try lightening the shadows on the rock for this shot? (Well I say the rock but just across the image). When I look at this I see a nice shot, but my eyes are looking at the rock and the detail isn't there, it's just blackness really.
Also to the left side about 2cm from the left and 1cm up there's a black blob - not sure what it is, maybe floating debris or similar, but it's distracting. I realise that in a basic challenge you can't clone it out, but maybe a different angle (to the shot) or crop could have avoided it.
Lastly I'd say that a lot of the beauty in this shot would have been the sun followed by rock followed by the reflection of the rock, and in this shot the reflection is cut off. A portrait orientation may have been interesting - grabbing the sun, rock and reflection and avoiding all the distracting stuff over to the left.
But what do I know? I think you've consistently been scoring higher than I have ;) |

| Nice composition. Unfortunately, I think camera noise (or a small crop) may cost you here. |

| The focus is too soft for me on the rocks -- and the water is too over-exposed. I think the focal point should have been the rock in the water - and it's reflection. I would have moved the frame down more... |
