I love the depth of colour in this, and the detail, and the simplicity of the black background.
As for composition, by which I assume you mean the leaf's placement and orientation, it seems perfect to me.
To be honest, the only thing i could think of criticising would be the framing - a much thinner gold border would look great, I think.

Hi, Phil. Such a lovely subject, all those bright colours and holes, it's on the verge of becoming a skeleton. I am assuming, though am not 100% sure, that the end of the leaf is top right and that the stem would have been bottom left. As such, I would have had space top and right instead of bottom and left, so that the leaf is "pointing" into that space. I have done a modification where I rotated the leaf clockwise so that the diagonal of the centre almost goes corner to corner, then altered the space as suggested above. I did a few frames as suggestions, but I quite like my V3 frame where the leaf goes over the edge. In this one I also adjusted levels and sharpened.
