Composition works nicely for me, Patricia. I see a crop of the reeds at the top down to the water line, however that also changes the whole image to a very abstract one. The real reeds act as a grounding for the eye.

I do have several options of these reflections. Some without the reeds. I agree an abstract is easy on the eyes.

This is a very cool find, Patricia. The reflection of the reeds is almost psychedelic looking.I like @David_Bostockā€™s crop suggestion as this would be even more of an abstract. Great eye to spot this scene.

Iā€™m thoroughly enjoying the swirling effect that the water has on the reed reflections, Patricia. I also like the shift from sky reflection to reed reflection angled across the frame. Including the reeds adds a fun touch of reality. A version with out the reeds would be totally abstract, very nice with a significantly different feeling.
