Interesting closeup. The focus looks just a little soft, and in the deeper colored areas, you can see noise.

The colors and lighting aren't very interesting, and the DOF a little too limited.

Hi, Your composition really does not do your picture justice along with the POV. To score high in the challenge your going to have to make that tree pop out at us. That would require a lower point of view and separating it from the background. You needed to take the picture at an angle where the sky behind would not have been blown out. As you can see the tree limbs are almost the same color and texture as the grass around them so everything become busy and the focus are is degraded.

I hope this comment helps and I wish you well in the challenge.

A bit soft and lacking in contrast to stand out from the bright green background.

nice little tree but its really hurt by a lot of other elements. the blownout background, the small trunk in the background right, and the grass. definetly a different time of day would be better.
