You did a good job not overexposing too large an area in creating this silhouette. the problem I see is that there is no clear focus, or path of discovery. The "dangling" branches in the upper left ript the eyes away from the larger branch structure. I would suggest trying some alternate croppings which perhaps draw attention to the leaves, or the symmetry of the "Y" section of the main branch near the Sun. Think about what made you want to take this picture, and then reduce it to its most direct presentation.

Needs focus and USM, the image is also not very interesting. 3

Comment by Tranquil:
Interesting shot. The contrast seems to be a little bit off here.

Mmmmmm!!! Limey!

Interesting why this is #140 and the other lime-on-red is in the top 10. Colors and composition are better here, and the quality of image is comparable... Beats me.

Comment by Pedro:
the idea is there, but the execution leaves something to be desired. the branches are very soft looking, and the lighting seems really flat. backlit subjects can make for some great contrasty images. I might have tried underexposing it a bit, then bumping the contrast using levels or curves. this is just my opinion, of course - it's all personal taste I guess, huh? :)

the color combo on this is really cool. looks like the lime is a little too green though... lost the whiteness of it...
