There are many traits in this fractal which are bound to get your attention, but that light green is surely the most peculiar, so I find the title "Parsley" indeed fitting.
Overall the work has a biomechanical feeling about it, of something living and moving and pulsing but nontheless connected to something artificial. A feeling strenghten by the different sources of light which seem to illuminate the scene; different not only because they seem to originate from various spots, but especially because they are distinct in kind.
I am aware I'm describing this piece like a photograph, and that is what it seems to an extension: a photograph taken at the microscope of some android's neural connections.

That said, I think the upper portion could be better still. In my opinion it has the feeling of something that should look like a see-through part, but doesn't quite achieve it. It has a slightly "flat" appearance, that makes it seem like there isn't anything to look through to begin with. And, more important still, it seems to me that there isn't anything past that portion, as if space would end there. Maybe a slight texture, much more soft still of the one used in the bottom half of the fractal and mantaining that cream shade of the upper part, could remove the problem.

Anyway, that's not a serious issue, and it mostly derives from my personal way to see and interpret this piece. A beautiful work indeed!


P.S.: maybe it's because it's lunch hour here, but I can definitely feel the smell of parsley.
