Why the landscape orientation? might it look better cropped closer?

innovative subject, and interesting choice to reflect it. I'm not sure I like everything so centered -both horizontally and vertically. Perhaps an off-set composition would make it more interesting. The black backgroung is a good choice to make the roots really show up and glow against it.

Wondering if this would be better as a vertical.

I like the precision of the reflection. I also like the way both the lines of the glass and the lines of the stem lead your eye through the picture.

This is obviously well taken, but I fail to see any real impact area of the pic?
