Simple yet effective - I like this a lot.
For this image and the square-ish crop you chose, the leaf branch might work better perfectly centered by bringing it down in the frame a bit.
Nice work!

The DOF is nice here. amazing sharpness for 1/13th sec. I might try to tone down those hotspots in the bg a bit though

Love this place, but missed the intimate details when I was there in the late 80s. I like the contrast between focused and OOF. Could maybe see a bit more burning in the ULC.

I like the detail and rich color here. Overall I like your composition here with one caveat: it seems to a little tight at the top of the frame. Not a deal breaker but it would be nice to have just a little more room. I would also consider using a wider aperture to blur the background a little better. The leaves seem to be on a relatively flat plain so I don't think you would have any problems getting them all in focus. Really those are minor nits on what is an otherwise fantastic shot. Thanks for sharing!!
