Looks good. A few suggestions:
The water should form a spiralling whirlpool as it goes down the drain.
It needs a lighter background, black is a very unnatural colour for this 
subject.
The sink looks too clean, particularly around the soap where I'd expect some 
soap scum showing where soapy water has run down the side from the soap 
dish.

Also, is the refractive index right? Water should be around ior 1.33, I 
think. I have to say the water looked more real in the first one, I think 
it's just because there's more highlights reflecting and refracting in the 
water.
