The lighting of the background is great - I really like the graphic element those curved shadows provide. Placement of subject within frame is good - and it balances well with it's own shadow. Focus seems poor - the detail on the leaves, pot, roots etc just isn't sharp. Could also do with bouncing just a touch of light back onto the near side of the plant to make it easier to see that detail.
I like the shot, the lines of the shadows but the roots ended up being a distraction for me and it lacked contrast for the black and white subject. Very few black and white shots can get away with low contrast.
I like this idea. the tones are very nice. I think it might have been a stronger image if the top of the plant was completely within a lighted stripe rather than overlapping into the shadows
Nice blend of lines and curves and the play of light and shadow. The black and white seems to be lacking a little in contrast and the bamboo seems a little soft too, but the idea is wonderful.
