I think Wayne's got it!
I would have cropped some of the tree top to minimize the glare.
Nice pic otherwise.

I think this is shot through the front windscreen of a car which accounts for the reflection and the "softness"?

Yes, obviously but still results are an OoF shot of your intended subject.
Super shot of the glass though.

Looks like someone needs to invest in some lens cleaner!

A little underexposed but, MUCH better focus.
Good luck!

May be he / she was going for the lomoish effect?

I have viewed this entry multiple times and just have to comment.
This shot lacks suitable quality in focus, exposure, composition, color, etc.
The purpose of these comments is to help the author improve the quality of their entry to be competitive.
I have no suggestions for improvements on this entry beyond a re-shoot with something better than a cellphone in order for this shot to be remotely competitive.
I do not mean do be harsh, just constructively honest. -Sorry!

It looks as if you may have needed a tripod for this shot.

You are quite right, my mistake. There is nothing in the goal that states it has to be full.

But then why are the guitars the only thing that is shifting? e.g. the doors and doorknobs in the back stayed the same

I think if you would have taken the photo of the lake without the fence or rails in front of it, and if the horizon were straightened out it could have been a much better photograph. I also think it is slightly under exposed.

It's great to experiment, but I'm not sure it works here, also theme states
Set up a 'Studio', still life, Not really a studio setup .

Without much focus, it's difficult to tell what's a reflection

IMHO, it is not difficult to take a photo out of focus. I think that I would kill the experiment.

IMHO, I still think a well-focused picture speaks a 1000 words.

The blurred yellow bird or butterfly is a bit disturbing because it catches the attention. Except that, nice point of view. Where is it ?

I think a little closer crop and more detail/contrast in the butterfly would make it look better.
