Excelente trabajo. Un landscape muy sencillo, donde solidos y plantas se integran y exigen a su autor una mayor atención y cuidado para que cada uno tenga su protagonismo, se corría el riesgo de que el plantado se lo comiera todo. La naturalidad en sus colores y la foto, consiguen el resto. Enhorabuena

Translation:

Excellent work. A very simple landscape, where solids and plants integrate and demand from its author greater attention and care so that each one has its prominence; there was a risk that the planting would overwhelm everything. The naturalness in its colors and the photo achieve the rest. Congratulations.

A well-executed Brazilian tank, i just wish to see a little bit more hardscape (rocks) at the center-lower area, so that it gives this layout a bit more impact, currently it feels that the ratio between the rocks and plants are not balance (i.e. too many plants).
