Controlled chaos that works rather well. I might burn the bright reflection, but not a big deal.

Amazing sharpness and detail in this image. This has a very natural look to it, as though no processing has been done. Beautiful image. Thanks for sharing.

Alberto,
Initially quite chaotic and really not much for the eye to settle on. I would say the symmetry of the reflection is what helps simplify this and bring some order. I think it's also one of those images where one needs to step back (literally) and look at this as a whole, rather than details, where you can get a little lost.
Harley mentioned the bright area which I agree about. Also, almost camouflaged, are the branches in the UL quadrant. With those two things I see a alternative crop. Cropping in from the left to eliminate those two items further simplifies this. In fact, what now comes forward are the inward leaning trees from both edges - these frame the chaos nicely. Crop some from the bottom for a 50/50 split (non-conventional) and this is simplified greatly - although certainly may depart greatly from your vision....
