The sculpture is from Sierra Leone, West Africa. I thought the deep coloring of the wood made for a good foil against the green leaves.

nice idea to have the sculptue peeking out of the leaves. I'd crop in and get just the face with the leaves in frnt of it - make it fill the frame. this composition is a bit busy.

When I saw this picture in the thumbnails, I thought it was a tall, thin fish in an aquarium. Imagine my surprise to see what it really is! I wish I could see more of the face. It seems awkward for the foliage to cover the eyes.

seems like this might have come from a lower end camera so I'm not gonna make an issue of the quality. i think the lighting in this one is a bit too harsh. .. especially along the left top portion. it seems almost overexposed. i like the leaves and carving but the baskets in the foreground aren't helping.. especially the one with the stars on plastic. might also help with a tad more contrast

I think it would be better if the plants blocks the other features of your subjects instead of the eyes.....
