The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
Overlapping leaves are creating a pattern of green and yellow lines. I liked both the colours as well as the lines. If you have seen this once you will always look up and hope for a repetition
Specific Feedback
Do you like the balance between the left and the right side?

A wonderful image, Armin. The balance works well for my taste. Is the left background plant a fern of some kind? The black lines on the leaves look like sporangia (and they add a lot of interest to the image). A great find and very well presented.
Armin: Terrific graphic impact with the backlighting and shadow play. My only tiny nit is the stalk of the BG ferns on the left side that caught my eye and kept annoying me. I just did a little Remove tool magic and made it go away. Of course that might make one wonder about the source of the shadows but I find that less bothersome. Really well seen, composed, captured and presented.>=))>
Oh how striking. Really terrific presentations of color and forms. The semi repeating pattern is bold and quite different. The light and dark greens tell me these might either be different plants, or the same plant at different times of life; young and mature. You ask about the balance and I think it works as it isn’t a dead center split, which would be static and take away from the energized feeling of the shot. Great job at finding this scene and exploiting it so well. Bill’s clean up job puts it over the top for me. Hope you will continue to post in Flora with such fun and novel photos.
Love the layers and patterns here, as well as the color combo. The only thing that feels “uneven” to me is the lack of those seeds (which provide a nice bonus element) on the right side, but that’s really a quibble. Perhaps an additional image to try would be a tighter vertical crop (if you have the pixels) just on the left side to isolate the strongest lines and patterns, but I still like this as presented.
