I really love this piece! The lack of colour gives it an eerie feeling--and the red petals contrast with the grey-scale land, adding to the feeling of mysterious danger; since Link is shown in more saturated colours, it immediately identifies that he's not from this landscape, and it helps draw the viewers attention to him first (then the red petals and bright puddles helps the eye move around the rest of the scene). The puddles of water are amazingly rendered, as are all the small details to this piece. The balance and composition of this piece is simply incredible; this is really a beautiful piece. Also, is that I giant spider I see crawling down that branch? Another nice touch to add to the overall mood of the piece.
