Composition is good. Backgorund could have been more out of focus (smaller f#).

Very interesting use of subject placement in this picture. I'm not sure I'm all that crazy about it. Since I'm not sure if I've seen a plant like this, I would like to see more of it. Also, it just seems a bit dark and maybe slightly out of focus. Although, it shows nice depth the way it is, I think the branches, or whatever you call them, could stand out even more and show better detail. I like the colors in the background of what appears to be a very brushy landscape.

Nice composition. I really get a feeling of the wild conditions this cactus is growing in with the backround. The title really fits the picture.

Nice shot. Too bad you couldn't get the background more out of focus.
