I like 2/3rds of this photo. The busy and dark area of the upper right hand corner takes away from the overall photo.

Very nice Albert, I definitely like the sweeping curves of the plant, and I like the upper right, it adds mystery. Beautiful job, keep them coming.

Another real beauty Albert. I liked the last very much but do think I prefer this one slightly. Very strong composition.

As you indicate, the light and lines are superb. Overall the image feels a little warm/yellow to me, though perhaps that is how the subject actually looked in the light at that time.

Yes Albert, I enjoy very much light and lines and shapes too. I also appreciate the great depth and a suggestion of tridimentionality. Great photo. What do you think about darkening a bit more the URC?
Take care.

The dark upper right part makes me think evil is never far away. :biggrin: I like this a lot. Well done, Albert!

Hi Albert, Love the lines, exposure, and coloring.

I'll ditto Mitch's comment. The upper right corner is distracting.

Had you considered cropping from the right?

Thanks for the kind comments, I left the URC as a color contrast to the radiant greens, I did not anticipate it to be bothersome. Gigi's suggestion to darken it, should have been my choice.
