Good idea, but there isn't much of a subject. I'm thinking it would look nicer if there was a duck swimming on the water, or something like that. Also, the pic looks a bit out of focus.

Sarthak Adak - I love the way you have framed the pond and reflections. Do find it a little dark on my monitor, and a little oof.

Nice reflection and ripples in the water. Very peaceful shot. I think the others are right about it being a bit out of focus. Did you do this handheld? Did you use a slow shutter speed? Either of these may have contributed to the oof. It might have been a more pleasing composition if the reflection wasn't centered in the image. Sometimes placing the main subject allow the rule of thirds helps. The idea of using framing is good, but in this case it may overwhelm the image.
