Greetings from the Critique Club!
This is an interesting shot. It meets the challenge in that there are branches but there is so much more also, competing for my attention. The rocks, the water, the moss, the trees. Maybe if you had focused more on the branches themselves, either through cropping or zooming in more on one area. The entire bottom area and the sides of the shot really adds nothing to it but distracting elements that draw attention away from the main subject of the dam.
The lighting, while natural is a bit harsh and either using a polorizing filter or through post processing could be softened a bit and maybe bring the colors out more. If you work with this shot at all Iwould love to see the results.
I see this is also your first entry, congrats, you did better than I did on my first entry! :)
