Hi pointnshoot. I see you didn't get a comment before the theme ended so came back to do so. The image has some nice elements to it. I think the whites are blown and the image loses appeal because of that. I also think this would work much better just recomposed differently. The bench at the bottom should be totally in the frame not partially cut off. I think this could also be accomplished better by my next suggestion which would be to have shot this vertically or cropped it square. The interesting details, and "Looking Through" portion of this image is the bench, the oval, and the scene within it. Left and right don't add anything. Also a thought would be to make it a b&w to emphasize the tones and textures since the scene doesn't have any colors are that are "punchy". Hope this gives some insights for improving similar images. Best.
