ivy

When the ivy has found its tower, when the delicate creeper has found its strong wall, we know how the parasite plants grow and prosper.

Anthony Trollope
really like this shot - as the quote suggests it doesn't matter the leaves are died and shrivelled, those little creeper stick strong! Love the tones in this - fab capture

I would welcome critique on the perspective of this (on anything really - always) - I like looking at things sidelong, but in the photo I find it kind of disorienting - sort of off - but straightening it (just to make the vertical line of the window match the vertical of the frame) makes it look weird to me. Maybe I shd. have just taken it dead on flat and centered . . .

I love the natural sepia tones of the plant. I agree on the straightening completely. Maybe a narrower crop.

It's perfect, Reba. I love the solitude of this image. Great shot.

I think you've got the angle right and I think it is better this way than it would have been straight on. A nice simple statement.
