We've got the same dried out stalks sitting at the edge of the water but at least we have some trees near this building which gives it some great contrasting color as well as shapes. I really like the curved tree trunks.
From the rear, you can see the chimney that leads from the forge all the way up through the ceiling of the upper level. The upper level seems just to be an empty storage area, although how one would access it is beyond me as there are no stairs. Then again, everything living here is a ninja so they probably just scale the trees and jump through the windows.
It looks like the trees have dropped some flowers or buds onto the roof of the smithy.
Something I really like about the smithy is the way the roof comes apart. In addition to being able to remove the second level entirely, the roof was also designed in a clamshell manner so that it could easily be opened up for placement of minifigs and other props. The "claws" on each half of the roof are offset in order to form interlocked shingles when both sides are closed.
