Marc, don't ask me where Alain came from as I know your name. Perhaps I was trying to think of too many things. Here's a repost of my comments with your name instead of Alain's. :^)
G'day Marc. the thumbnail doesn't do this one justice. Nice contrasts. I like the open, darker, OOF background you left at the upper left to balance the lighter detail in the foreground. The tip of the main frond even points to the upper right corner, although I might have preferred to see a stronger line to that corner from a straighter, brighter frond tip. The subtle shadows at the lower left in particular put the icing on the cake. Cheers, John
