Congrats on your ribbon! The details of this fern unfurling is stunning. What I find captivating is details of the shapes and lines. The compact pockets of leaves that are curled into a shell like chamber and the way the line of 'branches' flow and curl throughout the composition - it draws the eye in and holds the attention.
