Interesting composition with the red twigs(?) in the lower left balancing the red and white of the lighthouse in the upper right, and the subtle browns of the water and denuded woods. Like the texture of the woods and the strong verticals of the reflexions.

I like the splash of color in the foreground.

I'm not sure if the orange in the bottom left was put in to add some color, tension or to fill in an empty area in the photo or because you couldn't get the reflection without having it sticking into the picture. I would prefer that it wasn't there as it distracts greatly from what should be the main subject of the photo, the lighthouse and then the beautiful trees.

Great composition and I like the balance the red in the foreground gives. To bad this wasn’t advanced, you could clone out all the leaves in the water to minimize distractions. My only suggestion would be to sharpen this a bit.
