Greetings from the Critique Club: this is a lovely image and an interesting approach to the challenge. The colors are clear, compelling, and the composition (natural or artful or a combination) is satisfying. There is a nice leading movement for the eye toward the light. The light gets a little cold but it is acceptable given the seasonal naure of the image. Focus is good. It is also nice that there is depth to the image and not just one flat layer in the composition so that the whole image maintains some interest.
fantastic composition and cropping. The colors are wonderful, and the texture and detail captured here are excellent. The closeup up is wonderfully clear...congrats on a great photo! I'm giving this one a 10.
Beautiful vibrant colors. The great autumn colors give it a very warm feeling. Good closeup focus shows the veins or texture of each leaf. Excellent compostion. "10"
Very nice colors and focus! Nice textures too. I'm glad to see someone else went a little outside the box and did a more contemporary version of a still life. Hope your scores are at least as good as mine!

Looks like you needed to use a different WB setting, there is a definite blue cast from the shade under the tree. If you opened up the Channel Mixer in PS, and set the "Blue" channel from +100 to +50, you'd get an idea of just how better the colors for this shot could have been... perhaps closer to what you saw with your eyes in the first place.
