The red in the background is distracting. I also think the DOF could have been made stronger.

The subject is out of focus,

A bit soft in focus, especially the lower "coil".

I gave this a five. The subject is interesting and there's nice use of shallow depth of field. I'm not sure a horizontal format was the best choice to show of this interesting plant. There isn't quite enough detail in the spiral section of the plants. The lower one is a bit out of focus.

your main subjects are excellent -- the background hurts the shot a bit as the green is so vivid it pulls my eye away to an oof and large part of the shot that's not as interesting as your curls. EIther cropping or adjusting the brightness would help me connect better

more DoF wouldve been better

Exquisite. Depth of field and eccentric placement are quite wonderful. Complimentary colors are very attractive. No suggestion for improvement from me because it is already top notch. A ten.

Right around the corner from where I live on Vancouver Island. Great idea, title and shot. Good luck!
