Hidden Affection
This is an expressive line Gouache watercolor, Please rate it - the original picture was taken from inside a cave.

I'd suggest to mix the greens of the bushes and trees behind it with another color, especially since it's not in the foreground, as when objects are further away their colors decrease in intensity. Watercolor greens are very intense right out of the tube, so when working with plants, diluting the green will give them more depth. Right now the bushes look somewhat blobby and stand out more than what's in front of them.
I'm assuming the brown object in the foreground is a branch. Yours is a nice photograph, I just wouldn't have put the branch right there; I couldn't tell that it was right away.
That said, I like your little touches of red in places; it balances out the other colors. I also liked the forms of the trees, and how they bend.
