Perspective

When everyone was busy to photograph pier and lake....I jumped off and

went down the pier.

Request for comments and critiques....

nice idea. i see what you were going for, but you need a wider lens. see the parallel converging lines at each side? these should run from the top of the frame down to the middle. and the middle beam should be centered; as it is now, it's a little leftward-leaning, which detracts from the succession of geometric rectangles which are the strongest compositional element. i like how they look like windows or mirrors. what doesn't work here, though, is the icy bottom part. i would either leave this out of the frame or crop it out. if you got a bit closer, with a wider lens, it might be possible to achieve this. the icicle/barnacle is also distracting. it takes away from the simplicity of the composition. you might need waders and an ice axe, but if you really wanted an immaculate, impeccable shot, you would get rid of this. otherwise the capture is very good. nice detail in the shadow areas, and a well-balanced exposure overall (not too dark, not too light). A CPL might deepen the skies a bit and make the water even softer, but they're not bad as is. this shot has enough potential that, if possible, i would just try it again until it's perfect.
