This image has a strong composition, and a tree with some good character. I like the symmetry of this centered composition, and the nice leading lines of the stream. Similar to @Igor_Doncov recent post of the boojum trees in Baja, I think this is a scene that requires interesting light/clouds in the sky to work best. And you certainly have that here.

My suggestion would be increase contrast in the reflection, especially in thh dark. In real life, reflection are darker than the reflected subject. The reflection of the tree is a little flat looking relative to the tree itself. So I think adding some shadow contrast in the reflection would create a more natural look.

Busy image, but a very effective composition. That bare tree is essential for giving my eyes a place to rest.

I like this image quite a bit. I think it’s the fact that it’s such a common scene and yet so beautiful that appeals to me. To me the clouds seem just a touch too ‘heavy’ in the darker sections.
