There is certainly repetition, and the boards are interestingly different from each other, but the focused background is even more interesting and steals the viewers attention away. A shallow depth of field to knock the background out of focus would have helped prevent this.
Challenge met. To be honest, besides meeting the challenge, I am not sure there's much that holds my interest in this image. It's in focus, maybe a little dark, but not very inspiring to me. Sorry.
Very active background and the tree trunks/limbs towards the top of the image break the cohesion of the greenery. I'd prefer to see a smaller selection of this like the bottom lefthand corner - from the side to the center pole and only about half the image height. That way you'd get good solid greenery. Just my preference.
