For this to really stand to me the emerging plants would need to be more prominent, more colour?

Great dof in such tricky lighting! I don't like the title so much, but it doesn't matter.

Lots of meaning in such a small spot - the light through the blinds, the time on the watch. Nice focus, texture in the hand - the skin the mails. Very neat, well done.

I like the composition but feel the color palette to be a little dull. The 'forest' is almost as dull as the 'ashes'.

Thanks for the almost unanimous advice. I still think this is the way I want it. The light and dark zones are nicely distributed and form a pleasing composition. The soccer event on top adds extra movement in the image. This photo also reveals that my interest for graphics and the vegetal world has never been overshadowed by a passion for sports.
