    Cactus

    comments and suggestions welcome. my only regret is that the top of the cactus is cut off. it was terribly bright, and i couldn't see anything.

    nice frame of the moon. i think even a tighter cropp would look good. that way you won't notice the top cropped off as much

    I might would straighten it some, Also it seems to lack detail at the bottom for some reason? I am not sure why, but it doesn't seem sharp?

    Re: Cactus

    I would try and bring out the moon a bit so that it is more obvious and crop a smidgen off the left to pull the cactus more to the left so that its not so central becuase the eye goes straight to the body/trunk of the catcus not to the right which is where I think it should be pulled.
