The leaf does lack sharpness, I had a few shots of this image, none were sharp due to the very windy day. Probably processed in topaz and a bit overdone.
I appreciate all the comments.

Wow -- your D300 makes phone calls. That's more impressive than the photo, which I gave seven ones.

This is in bad photo in my opinion ... strange composition, boring subject, IQ is very bad (i presume it is taken with mobile phone), the framing has some strange artifacts on the right side border and background looks like computer generated something but probably is generated by DOF and the purple fringing on the branch is too strong.

So my decision is to give this photo score of one. :-) NHF

That's one heavy leaf. Nice.

The mottled background has a wonderful texture, but I would have preferred if the leaf was a bit sharper/crisper. It looks like you oversaturated the colors because the branch is cyan.

A great viewpoint but I fear it has been over-saturated and some more sharpness in the leaf would be good but still a good image
