Critique club Review:
Focus and depth of field are excellent.
Color, saturation, and hue are done well.
An earlier, or later in the day, exposure would have been preferrable. By the shadows, it looks like the picture was taken around high noon. Which leaves the lighting a little flat. Hours 10 - 2 are not the best for straight natural lighting. This might have also helped reduce the brown colors in the water. A neutral density filter and a longer exposure could have smoothed the water a bit more too. I'd go for the glassy smooth, as there is no way I know of to get huge waves in a duck pond.
The horizon line is a bit centered, but is nice and level.
You've already heard about the border. Some voters hate them, no matter what they look like. In this case, it is a little heavy. It starts to over power the picture. Had you mad eteh outer line the width of the inner, it would not have been so overly strong.
Overall, a pretty image, and would make a nice postcard.
