Has an attractive gel-like appearance. I really like head-on shots, this one is brilliant/terrifying.

Love the angle/composition but find the blown twig a bit annoying

Love the head on perspective, the twig doesn't bother me at all but a coser or different crop could take care of it if it were necesarry

thank you all,, I also was somewhat bothered by the "hot" twig,, I tried cropping it but the shot seemed to lose its balance, I tried coloring it, cloning some color into it,, but it all looked somewhat unnatural :rolleyes:
