Island concept is nice to look at in Amano's book but to really set them up is not easy. To make the island stands up, you have to have a strong foreground around it. example will be glosso or hairgrass. Keep your surrounding tidy...like all glosso or hairgrass and keep the line of your island distinct. This will give you a powerfull look.

Perhaps the ISO setting on your DCam is too slow.

nice! but i think taking out the tall plants in the middle would make the setup nicer
