Two Potato Bisque

I’m not 100% sure what I did wrong on this dish, but it totally doesn’t look like the original:

We thought it was ok, nothing that I really wanna remake anytime soon, especially since I don’t know what I did wrong. The only thing I can think of is maybe the recipe wasn’t clear on the leeks, I used 2 whole leeks and maybe it’s just 2 leaves of leeks. That would explain how green mine turned out.
