The roots do not impress me so much.
Where the roots meet the water surface they are mirrored in a strange way and there is also an irritating reflection on the left side glass.
The very thin branches in the background should definitely have been left out.
I particularly like the highlight with Bucelaphandra and the Myriophyllum in the background. The Micranthemum in the foreground feels too bulky and I would have preferred some details there instead. Some nice gravels for example.
Overall however you have created a very very nice mood and that is worthy of all credit.
Congratulations!
Good proportions good use of the reflections good sense of depth and well delimited layers.
Natural path good perspective but the path could be more worked with more details. The same with the foreground carpet that is so artificial comparing with the rest of the layout. Maybe the shadows in the trees are too strong.
But anyway it's a great aquascape.
Thank you for submitting!
Congratulations!
