Thank you Khaled, those are great points. I'll definitely keep that in mind next time I'm shooting!

Hey Will, hope you are fine! Actually there is absolutely nothing wrong with your image; greatly composed, nice and neat edit, a beautiful light and a stunning scenery! The only thing which I would approach a little bit different would be the perspective, the crop and the wood in the forground:
The wood is a little bit too far away for that kind of shot, so it is more a disturbing element for that image and mirroring scene. For a close up shot it would work perfectly, to have such a subject in the foreground which would give the whole image the respective depth. But based on that beautiful mirroring shot, it is not really a key element.
the shore area in the right corner shouldn't be included - either you choose another composition to add more ground and coast in the foreground or you remove it completely in your frame. In this case I would go without any coast line and start directly with the water in the foreground.
If you want to enhance the available mirroring effect a little bit more, try to select a deeper perspective and angle. This will give you a much stronger reflection of the respective motif. I like that you have set up the horizon line just in the middle of the frame -> most of the cases it works perfectly for reflection & mirroring shots.
