Picture is rather blocky, watch which setting you use when you resize your photo, looks like you got caught with pixel resize.
Compositionally there is a touch too much foreground. Try cropping it off about two thirds of the way down.
i see the leaves, and a richness of colors and textures. i love the lines. this is a great perspective, and a wonderful shot. as for the challenge, though, i am not sure what you are communicating. is it that the wind blew the leaves out of the trees, and now they're on the ground?
Like the perspective used in this photograph. Good color and dof. I would have rated it higher if I could see more of the leaves blowing around at the time it taken.
Perhaps a different crop, focusing on the few moving leaves. Good photograph.
