The way the leaf is positioned interests me and in a way, it appears as if the veins are radiating out to the edges of the canvas.
The colours in the background seem nice and natural. However, a few tiny bits on the leaf look slightly over expose and the leaf is maybe a bit too bright.
The way the slight dots of dust give the floating a realistic feel. If there were no dust, it would just appear if the leaf were in mid-air, but I like the way the dust gives it a slight grounding.
The background adds a bit to the location concept and I feel that the light on the rocks add a pattern that almost looks like waves.

That's a great oak leaf shot.
I found some really lovely orangey-red oak leaves the other day and took several shots of them on the tree but I didn't like them. I should have just ripped one off and thrown it in the river. lol
