The composition is super but I feel the photo is being let down by the technicals. It appears dull and maybe a bit overexposed. This could do with a bit more contrast, or you could have gone in the opposite direction and made it very high key.
I'm going to assume (I may be wrong) that you planted (har har) this leaf here, but I like the idea. Maybe increasing the contrast and making the trees darker would add some impact here, but good idea nonetheless.
