Great.

Suggestions? Moi? I have no  idea how you do what you do, so suggestions from 
me are to be taken with a grain  of salt. A BIG grain. My eye wanders around 
a bit wondering where to go. I'd try  lightening the water a tad on the right 
by the wall, see if it looks better or  worse, improves eye flow or not. Just 
a tad.

But, still, great as  always.
