Composition (content)
Nice abstract image. An original approach on reflections from water. The result of the ripples distorting the already curved tree and tree branches is very nice.
The composition is very interesting. There is a kind of double antithesis in it (right vs left). You've got two fat trees on the right and two thinner ones on the left. The fat ones carry a lot of branches, where the thinner ones don't and leave room for a refreshing blue sky. The right side say's old and the left side young (young trees reaching for the bright blue sky, where the old ones try to prevent the growing of young ones by taking away the light).
Could also be cause by your position in relation to the trees and they might all be equally old, but the result remains the same.
Background
Good use of reflection.
Camera Work (Technical)
Good choice of aperture, the scene is a subject as a whole, so it need to be in the field of focus as a whole.
Good choice of shutter to avoid motion blur by the moving water.
Good exposure, reflections sometimes fools the meter.
Good focus and sharpness.
(Don't have a clue if you have control over those with an S30)

My opinion
