Not sure what to think of this. I manually focused on the reflection of a tree in a puddle that was full of leaves. I kind of like the effect but not really sure what to do with it.

Reflections can look really good in pictures (especially couple pictures). Were you trying to save this specific picture and use it for something? I don't know if this is a keeper, because if I'm being honest I wouldn't have even known this was a reflection if you hadn't specified that. It looks to me simply like a snapshot of a tree focused through a fence. There is nothing that grasps my attention.

Just trying to learn from this. To be honest it's a pretty ugly tree.

And by all means keep learning and practicing reflections in your photos! It just sounded from the original post that you were asking what to do with "this specific photo" and in that case, I vote throw it out.

I'll look for better opportunities, and better lighting and try again.
