The leaves floating in the middle of the picture are in fact the case of a Caddis Fly larvae (Glyphotaelius pellucidus - I think ?).

Watch closely and you will observe the Larvae emerge from his case and swim down to the rock beneath.

This Caddis Fly larvae makes his case out of circular peices of leaves glued together into a tube and lives in still water such as ponds.

There are tadpoles swimming around in the background. At the end one of the tadpoles bumps into the caddis fly.
