I think the dof is fine. Its the angle of the pipe that is bothersome to me. Notice how its a straight line on just one side of the photo? Kind of throws off the balance of the entire image. If you can, I'd try shooting it at an angle so you have leading lines that lead your eyes throughout the entire image
