We have some lovely trees here that contrast beautifully with the blue sky.. I actually toned down the saturation of this image, hopefully that wasn't a mistake. (Probably was..)

I've liked to start in the middle of people's scoring to find the pictures that have promise, but let us down. This is a good example where you could possibly use a trick I've learned. I think what is letting the picture down is the crop. You are in a middle ground which hurts. Either we want more space on the sides to provide context (or even negative space) or you want to crop it so that the branches actually leave the canvas. This provides more dynamics to the composition. Finally I would have increased the f-stop to allow for a deeper DOF. Having the right side OOF does not help the picture.
