Albert, solid dof and great job selecting the composition. Sweeping curves and ridged textures work well. You retained a more natural green/yellow than my saturated versions...this looks nice. Well done!

Lovely detail and delightful curves, Albert. Had you considerer adding a bit of shading to the various levels of leaves?

Cheers,
