I may not have attcahed the file properly if you can't see it.

If you're not sure what the subject is, it's a fern growing from a stone wall.

ah..i've got it now. yes i wasn't sure what the subject was..i was thinking it might have been a plant growing in a yard and you forgot to rotate the picture. but now that i know its a fern from a wall it makes more sense. i would like to see more of the wall in the picture. or if you just wanted to have the fern in the picture a different angle might work better.

I like the overall feel for the picture, but a crop with a little more of the wall behind on an edge behind would make sure that the viewer does get an idea of the wall plant. Keep the focus on the plant and in location at about the junction of the 1/3s and it would be a nice photo.
