I like the simplicity you've captured but I have a slight dislike that the branch doesn't have an ending on either side of the frame as it's leading my eye out of the picture in both directions.
This is a wonderful work of art. Great use of leading lines... simple, yet very effective... definitely not boring (a risk with "simple"). I love it, but I fear the voting masses might miss the beauty... if so I'll be back to give this a MUAIMHO.
