To get better definition
I think one reason might have been my failure to zoom in further than I did (98mm) but I also didn't want to lose the perspective from the rest of the scene. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do differently next time?

,WB is ok,
Transparency and reflectance are ok too.
However…
The focus point and DoF are not adequate.
The specular highlights are absent.

,First, the top photos were taken around noon time. I changed the white balance in Lightroom only from AS SHOT to a custom cooler setting to match the weather that day because we had a snowstorm coming in. In fact, it started snowing shortly after I took them. I will admit that was probably too much and something I chose not to do today.
Today's photos were taken around 3pm on a sunny day and few clouds in the sky. I left the white balance settings to as shot, did not touch any of the saturation or luminescence sliders, and only slight changes to the others. However, I was also standing on a frozen creek so I was in more of a hurry to get my shot and leave before anything happened to me. Maybe I'll have to find my fly fishing waders and have them on for next time just in case
Thank you and I appreciate the words. I will need to do some further reading into what you brought up about specular highlights since I'm not quite sure what you mean by that.
