This is very dark.... it's hard to see any detail or color on the leaf. Try using more lighting and/or levels, brightness, curves adjustments.

I like the use of negative space but your photo could be a bit brighter.

This appears to have been a difficult photograph to capture - but you've achieved a good shot of the action and everything seems to be in good focus. The legs and feet of the person standing in the background detract slightly from the rest of the image and wonder if they could have been avoided if photo had been taken from another angle. No detriment to the photo meeting the challenge though.

Might have been a little stronger with a shallower depth of field to keep the background distractions minimal, but I still like this one a lot!

too much background detail for my taste - I would have blurred it a bit to bring out the subject more
