Freedom of Thought - giving it a chance

I can't believe this shot ended up where it did, I expected it in the top 3, or at least 10. It was such a creative take on this challenge. I like the 'other objects' a tube (going down the tube perhaps?) And the giant dead flower, such symbol of true beauty being replaced (to me anyway). Thanks for the thought provoking image, sorry it did not fair too well.

This is a pretty good shot except way too much dead space in the lower half IMHO.

the color of the grass looks a bit unatural.

i like this idea, but something about how the bw contrast/brightness or whatever has me thinking..its like it needs more light, or more contrast or something in its levels or toning.

Not much to look at......good detail of the rocks however, just not an exciting shot.

Great focus in this shot. The great contrast really adds to the shot. Every item seem to pop out of the picture. Good shadows in the piece helps with this. You can get the feeling of texture in everything . From the pebbles to the backwall. Beautiful shot.

A bit more contrast would have helped bring out the new life (vegetation) Good interpretation.

I woulda called it "Freedom TO think". Wonder if any one else will get it. Bonus points for originality!

It´s a good idea, but for me there are a lot of grass in the picture and the goal-net is too small... But just an opinion. For the rest, it´s a beatiful shot. I think it was a good choice to do it in B&W...7
