Hi Hali,
In terms of cc, I would caveat any comments by saying the image as presented is (as per my original comments) absolutely wonderful and a joy to behold, I really like the zingy results that this imaginative technique yields.
However, you asked and so with my best OCD head on, here you go -
Personally, I would take the image through to Photoshop (other apps are available) and set to healing some of the (very minor) surface scratches.
I would try removing/ replacing the lone green leaf (right side) to assess if that improved things (there is a risk this would effect the overall balance).
I would try a digital frame, similarly assessing whether this was beneficial, or otherwise.
Apart from these comments (which I've had to really scrape the bottom of the barrel to come up with), I'm struggling to find fault - you nailed it...

Thanks so much, Phil this is exactly what I was looking for.Hi Hali,

I will pull it back into PS and look for those areas. I spent some time with the obvious ones but I wasn’t ocd enough! I did try to take out the leaf it makes that bottom area be very blank, I may try cropping it up and see how that works.
I’ve never used digital frames and wouldn’t know where to start with them. I think some of the NIK collection has some? I have the original topaz studio so maybe I will check that out too. I think you had said in the past you have studio2 but not sure that is available still (or what it costs)
Thank you again and I’m growing a thick enough skin to always appreciate cc!
