Nice subject and capture.
I am a sucker for sharpness and bokeh. So even if it was a tragic photo I would secretly like it.
But it is not a tragic photo! It has contrast, texture, and I think there is even some story in there. Which means I do not have to like it in secret. Fine work.
There are some leaves that photographed well -- this one belongs to the neverfails. It will be nice if you can even out the blob on lower LHS.
nicely composed and lit, and a very well blurred background. My one suggestion is to shoot something like this with a narrower aperture. The curved piece on the right is OOF. For reasons I don't entirely understand, blurring in the foreground often detracts even when similar blurring toward the back of the subject wouldn't. If I'm reading the exif right, you shot at 1/500, f/5.6. If it wasn't windy, you could move 2 stops of light from the shutter to the aperture.
That is a very poor cloning job by me, but remember I had been drinking
