I am probably late on my advice, and will read all about it as I work my way 
through the digests, but while the horizon is down the middle, the subject 
is not.  But if you must, I would crop just a bit off the bottom.  Not too 
much, because the reflection is really an interesting part of the photo 
giving it depth.  If you crop the top, that raises the main subject to 
actually be in the middle, and if you crop even more so that does not 
happen, the sky will be almost gone, and the sky is very interesting, and 
again, adds depth beyond the subject.  My 2 cents.
