Greetings from the Critique Club:
Well done for entering your first image on DPC! I see you have a second image submitted to, so you're on your way.
As for this image, I agree with your commenters (and you) that the image is soft to a problematical extent. I do like the light though, especially the way in which it adds an edging effect to the leaf. I also like your choice of aspect ratio too - it works well.
It terms of meeting the challenge - I'm not sure that this is the best match; I suppose I had expectations that the subject would stand out from the background as a consequence of its colour. Here, the constant colour across the frame has the opposite effect - though I do concede that excellent edging provides some much need contrast.
Overall, I quite like the idea behind the image although I think your already know the execution isn't quite there.
I'll be interested to see how you do with the next submission.
Best of luck
