This would make an awesome print I think - one of my absolute favorites in the challenge.

Excellent exposure and I just love the reflections of the trees in the water! Very good tonal range. 7

Well composed. Little duck in the BG is a nice touch. I wish the reflection of the tree across the way was a tad to the left but dunno if there was anything you could do about that. Nice job Overall!

I feel like I'm missing something here. This is composed nicely, but seems entirely overprocessed. The reflection is distorted, and the base of the tree seems rather gunky, for lack of a better word.

Revisiting and explaining my lower scores - I hope to be helpful, not insulting.

I only rated this a 4 because it just doesn't come across as a quality photo. Nothing "snaps", even though you've used the rule of thirds nicely.

Sorry, again, trying to be helpful.

This is one gorgeous picture, from the textures, to the reflections, to the ducks, this has everything going for it. I think you got the exposure almost dead on, except for the one bright spot at the top of the tree, burn that just a little. Also, the twigs and stuff laying on the ground are a little cluttered and do not add to the picture, maybe a little site cleanup before taking the picture (bottom right corner). Even with saying that, I'm still giving this a 9. Good Shot!

Quirky composition, but it works for me. The trunk going up counterpointed by the tree reflection going down is weird, but effective. 8
