Background counts.

The way you have framed this image is wonderfully done. It's good to see the sun in the corner for once and as the main subject. Also, even though this is a silhouette you can see the depth of field just based off of the wonderful color change in the sky. On the down side the glare of the sun created a lens flare over the forest. I do believe that that is the only real problem you have with this shot. The lining of the clouds really works with your framing and the leafs look beautiful. In other words, this is a great shot and I loved it. Keep it up.
