I really like the composition of this picture - particularly how there is both big and small details within the succulent plants. The only thing I would say is that the whites look a little blown out on the small bright plants – I would take highlights down just a bit to allow for just a little more contrast and for those intricate details to pop.

Amber, Thank you. I’ll try that
