I like this. Not really buying into the "distractions" as I think they are mostly minute background elements that don't seem out of place. I guess "technically" it works (for the challenge theme), lucky for you it's a nice photo. It's something I could see framed on a wall. :-) 8

I really like the grills and benches. To me, they add to the photo instead of distract.

To be honest, I find the border more distracting than the elements mentioned in the title.

I don't mind them a particular distraction, since they are nicely blurred, with the focus on the leaves. Maybe the shaded border though. :)

You know what, I think the benches add to this, I find the heavy vignetting the most distracting.
