Zion National Park 2020. Yes, I manipulated the leaf. It was already there but I moved it just a little bit to get a better composition. Loved the simplicity of this with the wavy rock formation. Thanks for looking.
What technical feedback would you like if any? Any
(If this is a composite, etc. please be honest with your techniques to help others learn)

David, the leaf fits well and looks good in the waves of stone. I could see lots of possible leaf placements in a scene like this or rotations of this view.
Nitpicks - you could perhaps carefully clone out some of the texture to the bottom left of the light that is breaking up the flow of the lines, and burn the top corners very lightly to draw the eye more to the leaf. A slight vignette with the center on the leaf could work, too.
