the background really distracts me and doesn't hold ground for this image. The black/white doesn't do it any justice as well.

looks like some really bad post processing here .Maybe thats not what it is in which case I apologize. just seems the parts of the leaves that are blurred dotn follow any natural pattern or look like theres a natural reason for such random blurring. hope that helps explain things in case your not getting as high a vote as you expected.
