Agave in Desert

the plant is a bit plastic looking but your ground is very good to me

I agree with Seth, just mess with the textures on the plant.  Maybe increase the translucency some.  Also the atmosphere is a little too hazy for my taste.  The lighting and the ground look pretty good though

i tried a plant like this one before (here)... and i wasn't able to get a good result
i hope you'll do better than i did !!! ^^

 I agree.  It would fun to see what you can do with this.  Nice ground texture.

Really nice ground, tweak the plant textures a little and it will be great. Not too sure about the use of DOF here but I'm not a real expert...

Great job on getting the agave textures in. I am presently working on a scene (will post soon) with the agave in it, and would like to see your tgd to better understand the mapping that you have done so well with. I have to agree with the opinion expressed that the agave plant texturing is somewhat difficult to get just right. Also what are the type of trees that you have used in your background, because they certainly do work nicely?

I agree about the ground texture: but to me, the lower left looks like you've applied motion blur to it, rather than a true DOF effect.
