The branch extends horizontally from the top left corner to the top right corner and is obscured heavily by the leaf clusters. The four leaf clusters are in the top left, top center and top right of the image as well as the center. The berries are in the top left corner and top center of the image. The red tripod stamp has two legs facing forward, has two squared horn shapes coming from the body, and a whisp of smoke coming from the top.
