Description
Out walking, and noticed these goofy little moss-balls on a thick branch far above. It looks kinda like a landscape in on its own (O'Neil cylinder-ish?).Luckily I have long limbs, so I did not have to climb for this one.
I had several go's at capturing it from the side, alot like with Mossy Advance. Though I decided that in this picture, depth would play a bigger role.
I could not get rid of the backlight in anyway, so why not just embrace it? It helped out with smoothing out the background as well, so I don't mind.
- Either way, it was a fun capture, and I hope you all enjoy it as well!

Hey there! Thank you for submitting to for feedback!
I really love the perspective you chose! Really unique and interesting to look at.
Since you submitted for feedback, here are some suggestions for you:
As you mentioned, the brightness of the background is a small "disturbance" here, it kind of steals the show from the moss. Since you could'nt adjust it afterwards, maybe try a lower shutterspeed next time - less light can fall into the lens and therefore the picture gets a little bit darker.
A slightly higher contrast could also bring out the moss a little bit more - because that was what you wanted to bring into the center of attention, right?
Despite that i think your idea of blurring out the background a little to point out the moss was a good idea! Always bring into the center of attention which you intended when you shot the picture.
I hope this helps, and if you have questions please ask!

Hey there!
After looking at it, I agree with what you've said. The light does kind of steal the show a little bit.
Not entirely sure if my camera can adjust the contrast of pictures taken, but I could (in hindsight) have gone for a lower shutterspeed. 
As always; happy for all the constructive critisism I can get, and appreciate the comments as well!
