Love the subtle effect. It's what I can't see that disturbs me. (...and I know it's out there).

A valient attempt to capture the dark side of an enchanted forest.

Poor focus is what will hold dow the score of this image more than anything else. It appears that the darker background ferns are in better focus than the foreground leaves. This could be because your camera's autofocus was fooled into focusing on the wrong place. This is a common problem with autofocus cameras in low light situations. Looks like it is focused at infinity.

In order for this image to work well with reviewers you would need to have the foreground leaves be in absolutely razor sharp focus with very fine detail plainly visible. And if you could add something into the darkened area that is partly illuminated but that viewers could recognize and relate to then you could have a ribbon winner on your hands.

Good cropping/screen position. don't think it'd work any other way.

the leaves look out of focus and almost too green.

Focus is a bit soft.
