My eye is jumping around too much for comfort -- I'd have cropped from the right to a portrait format; my eye starts with the flower cluster on the lower left and follows the branches through and into the back.
Absolutely phenomenal bokeh and just an overall beautiful shot. Not really sure how it fits the challenge, but I am learning that sometimes I am just not smart enough to get it and I should just judge a photo on it's own beauty and challenge theme be damned, therefore an 8. I love the muted tones and again, that BOKEH!!!!!!WOW
I'm not sure I see threes but I love this picture so I'm giving it an 8 anyway. I'm guessing this has musical implication. (on but then it would have been dis-chord).
I am assuming the three branches are the three elements?
It is a lovely photo, but it took me a little to long to figure out in what way the challenge was being met. I also think that the bottom right branch doesn't take as much importance as the other two. 6
