What’s wrong with this picture?

I

admit that the out of focus branches at the top of this frame drive me a little crazy. I shot this picture of a castle along the Rhine River in Germany from a precarious vantage point, and usually I don’t include overhanging branches in my compositions of landscapes or architecture. I find them to be somewhat distracting in most (but not all) cases. If they are included, however, they have to be sharp. Otherwise they completely ruin the image. Even if they are almost sharp, it still doesn’t look good.
