I like this pic, the way you have captured the sparkling water framed between the two trunks of the tree is lovely. I think it is better how you have it, with the focus on the tree, as there are so many twigs that if they were all fuzzy I think it would distract me. It is usually a good idea to try both when taking the picture though, and see which works better when you get home. I love the colour of the sky through the branches and the colours of reflected light on the water.

I like it very much, love the colors. I dont know how it would have looked like with the reflection a litle more visible, maybe a step to the left?
There are a ton of sunsets around and this one is a litle more unique because of the way you set your view point and focus.
