I like the idea and simplicity of a rural pond in great light, but the grasses on the LH side pull my eye away from the reflection. Maybe a step or two to the left changes everything, maybe it puts you in the pond?
NIce DOF and yes, the interesting water plants leaves me wanting more to the left. Maybe clone out the man made structure? My eye is immediately drawn to it. Just an idea. I suppose it's about what you want to convey to your audience.
I think the reeds add some interest and are a nice balance to the background tree. Beautiful image Jack.

Thanks for the comments everyone. This is an area of photography that I want to explore more and your comments will help me in future comps and locations. I've always looked at the grand scenics but I need to start focusing at the things right in front of me as well.
