Awesome abstract effect when you first look at it! Good choice to go black/white.

Nice b/w. It would have been nice to bring out more detail in the center because this is where the folds of the cactus lead me eye.

I like the texture over most of the image, some of the plant falls into too much darkness to appreciate.

tip for shooting with timer: put an object/your hand into the frame where you plan to be during the shot and then press the shutter. in the 10-20 seconds after, since the cam is already locked on, you can casually wander back into the frame and get it bang on.

that aside, nice shot! could have been a bit darker to bring out 'true' blacks.

Loads of potential with that lighting and model. Too bad about the soft focus.

Doesn't hold enough appeal to me. It needs something to make it Pop more.

A sharper (more focused) photo would have scored well here.
