You look really good

Your leg and seat are perfect, and your release is appropriate for the size of fence. Your horse isn't really jumping it - but its only a cross rail and most horse just canter over them. He does look a little annoyed - with ears back and head a bit twisted -- so maybe you come back a bit too early after the fence? But then again some horses just look like that

Your leg and seat are good and your fold is appropriate for the height of fence you are jumping.
some things to work on
1) get your shoulders back and dont "hunch"
2) shorten your reins, you have thrown his head away and lost contact with his mouth. Not really an issue in this instance, but it wont serve you well over larger fences and tougher courses.
3) get more impulsion over the fence, your horse is doing only the very minimum needed to get over the fence and doing that begrudgingly, I know the fence is really tiny but its good to get him into good habits now. I would recommend working on gymnastic sequences to get him using himself properly and putting in an effort over a fence. He needs to be more bouncy! lol.

The ears are from experience of IEA. Lol. He's not my horse. In IEA you draw horses name from a hat, then whoever you drew, you have to ride in your division (X-Rails - 2'6") And hopefully you win. See what these horses have to deal with? Most of the time, other teams you are competing with, bring the horses they practice on at home. I depends who's hosting/co-hosting.
I know, it's really confusing.

Thanks for the critique though.
