A little over done - could have used a little more brightening or more contrast. Good idea though - just shy of being a stellar image.

There are other images in this challenge similar, but this has a certain charm that cannot be denied. Good color and detail - a worth challenge image.

Committed for Life

Had to think about this one for a minute. I like it, but I'm not sure if the idea is that the fungi is committed to the tree or vice versa. The image is richly detailed which is nothing shorty of spectacular. I have to give it a ten from an execution standpoint - well done.

not out!

A good action capture which is certainly well within the idea of Commitment. However, I feel a little lighter exposure or maybe some post processing massaging would have help this a lot. Still a worthy entry given the nature of the title.

I can be with Artemis forever

Another one that is far "outside the box" and I like it if only because it looks like a water color painting. I understand the title, but I'm not sure if others get it. Artemis is a greek god of nature (or environment). A title should convey the meaning immediately. However, the image is wonderful despite the title and it is well worth a top ten finish.

I must admit, I don't get this one at all. But, I like the capture and processing - very intriguing.

I would have titled this "not today buddy" or "I have a headache"...very nice image, excellent detail - wonderful color. Should be a top ten image at the very least if not top five. Well done.

A little uneven exposure which may have been intentional. A worthy effort, but not to my taste.
