#223: 216L Aquatic Garden Untamed Nature

Flavio Henard Jorge de Freitas Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Comments

The dense planting approach does give a strong sense of wilderness to the aquascape. The aquascape can use some open space for contrast and space for the eyes to rest - here the aquascape almost seems same texture left to right.

Comment
The intention was to look like an unexplored forest, where the person who comes across it asks: Will I be able to clear this forest?
Many trunks, branches, wild nature complete their almost hazy look.
