I like the color contrast and the way you split up the image into zones of color
I feel the leaf should be centered more or offset more towards a corner
The harsh lines in the background/sky area should be blended, softened or removed...the leaf is your subject/message and as such should be the most dominant part of the image.
there's a real feeling of motion, but it's not connected to the leaf. given the title, the leaf should feel like it's in motion and it does not... If this is your goal, you may want to consider a different method of expressing this idea.
All things considered, I can feel you getting closer to expressing your ideas through abstract art. your efforts are getting stronger, keep up the good work, and feel free to experiment more with this leaf concept! I'd like to see what else you come up with :)

why is the leaf so important?
