Composed for a pleasing arrangement of lights and darks. I like the way the tarragon's shadow curls around on the lower right.

The notan would be stronger for this image if there was one dominant value—one value that was 60% or more. Raybould says 60:25:15 is a good ratio for 3-value notans. An easy way to remember this rule is "Mostly, some, and a bit."
