One of the things I look for when judging impact and techniques is if the image draws my eye to multiple locations. This picture scores well in both, due to the variety of textures in the image, as well as the framing of the image. The originality, while somewhat high, is somewhat hurt due to the common subject matter. Overall the vision in this image is very good and very cohesive. One of the things I like to ask myself when looking at photography of nature is "Does this picture make me want to go to this location?" and this image answers that with a resounding "Yes."
