Good tonality, good display of the near-abstract natural world. Colour combination is interesting, but it's not absolutely grabbing me I'm afraid.

Ah, waht a texture! Love the colors as well.. I feel, though, that making it a bit lighter and bringing out details where all the veins intersect might work better. Currently, on my screen, it looks like a black hole. Just my 2 cents.
