Looks nice, but the background is a little too straight imo.

It think your boat needs to be displacing a little more water. It looks like it is sitting on top of the water without sinking under it at all. Maybe drop it down a little more and raise the reflection up a little to compensate. You may want to do the same with the floating box too.
I like it though, is this the first one you've done with reflections?

Doesn't much look like a swamp, but it looks like a decent terrain with potential.
I'd advice you to add more land, as this looks more like a lake than a swamp,
and I'd advice you to thin out the reflection, a swampy lake is generally a little
too boggy for such nice reflections.
Those gaps between the trees also look horrible, you should cover them and add
add another layer or two of mountains both in front and behind them, to give the
terrain a little more depth. I also adivce you to, instead of using the editor default
terrain fog, to use the "Cloud" model from the UTM and flatten it completely, to give
the terrain a somewhat more natural grime and fogged appearance.
I would say more, but let's start there.

Less spam of the cattail model would be appreciated, and if you're using the UTM I would
also advice you to use some better looking rocks, instead of the horrid Wc3 default ones.
If I remember correctly, the cloud model is classified under "Cinematic" in the doodads
panel.
Personally I would also like to see you zoom the camera a tad out and lay it closer
to the water, shifting the view so that you get more sky into it, then add some ground
right in front of the camera, possibly with a tree or two and some shrubbery.
Oh, and PS: Avoid the green circle of death.
- And use "F" and "K" instead of "V."
