Even the antlers blend in with the environment.

Now that I look at this again, I think it might look just fine if you just crop that nasty pole out of there and make it a square crop.

A Break in the Clouds

I think the trees provide a needed context at the bottom so I wouldn't crop them any more. I might take a little off the right (maybe a teensy bit from the left too) to get it to a completely square crop.

Since the trees are already in silhouette, I would use a Curve adjustment to darken/increase the contrast in the clouds to bring out the rays even more.

I was fired by that cigarette company!

Great shot of a monster ant, but for this particular challenge I think we were limited to vertebrates.

It is interesting that DPC voters always seem to complain about baby pictures, but I bet they go ape for pictures of baby ANIMALS. I like it too.

I like your choice of a low-angled shot.
