The frame was a good idea. I don't like the color of the stem much - too dead-looking.

Now this would have worked well in the greeting card challenge also. I like the use of negative space and the hairline orange border. The "ground up" effect isn't as obvious as other entries, but overall a nice photo.

Comment by jpochard:
Definitely creepy! The editing really suits the subject here. My only critique would be to clone out or greatly desat the two red lines of whatever that is just right of bottom center.

Creepy! You've done a nice job in post editing. Best of the group IMO.

What a wonderful location for photos! You have two choices, include the sculpture or move in front of it and take in the beautiful scenery. I like the option you selected. It has nice symetry. Who says centered compositions don't work? ;^) Only constructive criticism I have is I wish it wasn't so hazy in the distance. A UV have filter may have helped a little (of course it could have been WAY hazy and you already used one...).

Smile and keep having fun!

I think this shot has stirred up quite a controversy, about challenge definitions, and POV verses Perspective. I hope in all this they don't miss the fact that this is a great shot, Congrats on the blue !!
