Drishti, this is a fine mix of the oak leaf and the abstract reflections surrounding it. Having spent quite a bit of time taking photos like this, I know the challenge of getting the leaf sharp while the water is moving. You’ve done that well here. Having the leaf near the center of the frame adds to its visual dominance. Since its color also sets it apart, I suggest a modest crop from the top and right to move the leaf further from the center line.

Thank you Mark! This was my first attempt at photographing abstract scenes of water. I definitely lucked out with the focus - 3 out of 40 frames worked out haha! I agree on the crop it helps the image after implementing!!
Hi Drishti,
that’s a beautiful abstract image. I like the way the leaf stands out from the surface of the water.
I agree with @Mark_Seaver about the crop.
Additionally, I would try to cool the image down very slightly. That will add to the color separation.
