Make like a tree... WIP

As per Brandt's request, I am posting this latest one I'm working on, part of the show I will have out here in Albany next Spring.

I'm usually self-depreciating when it comes to my work, but not so with this one.  Everything seems to be clicking, and I'm really figuring out what is working best for me.  I'm questioning one thing, but I'd like to see what you guys say about it.

It's not a great pic.  I usually shoot outside for best results, but the weather here hasn't been optimal.  I just rigged up a stage for still life photoing in my room, and purchased a few 5,000 kelvin, 900 lumen bulbs.  I'm still trying to figure it out, as you can see (glare, fish eye), but at least the temp seems to be working.

Yes, the last leaf is yet to be done.
