*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
An appealing image that meets the challenge.
I like your interpretation and title, it works well, you have achieved your goal, certainly for me anyway. The branch you have found here is a very interesting shape with all of the dead leaves to the right and the one thriving shoot to the left, you have composed it well with a close crop that is just about right for the subject.
I find the OOF dead leaf in the foreground a little distracting but not in a major way, in any case I think as long as you have all of the living side in good sharp focus the right matters less. I think a little less DOF could have improved it further reducing the background detail as long as the living side can be kept sharp. A plain cloth or card would have been good here. The lighting is perhaps a little on the harsh side but you have controlled the exposure quite well.
Nicely done Marcel, thanks for your submission, Sid |
