Just to add my 2 cents.. the water depth also helps. If the layer is very shallow...like <1 cm, it takes a reasonable amount of wind to move it. This was the case in the attached. There was quite a breeze blowing which bloated the stars but not enough to destroy the MW reflection. The star stretch is caused by wind moving the water. Super rare to have no motion whatsoever.
