This is so brown it looks like it has a sepia tint. As a matter of fact, I think I gave it a 5 because of that. I think the sepia shots were pretty poor efforts for the brown challenge. Sorry I lumped yours in with that category. I think these natural brown are very nice, and I should have realized from the blue lens on the camera that it wasn't a tint.

To me it looks as if shes bumping her head on the top of the picture. You could've left some space there.

Watching My Own Existence
by posthumous

Comment by gjumi:
This photo and some of the comments can be used as an example on appreciating art. I would like to add something about the colours: it´s a great find that the red vest on the kid´s back is the opposite of the blue water and sky; and his clothes are blue also. I guess it can mean that the hardships of life (the red) which go against the mainstream (the blue of everything) have to be carried on one´s back/shoulders, while trying to melt in society (the blue of clothes).
But, when you really think about it (reflect - the reflection), the entire life is blended into a boring dark brown, fragmented into unconnected pieces. And the proof of the existence (ripples) disappear or get mixed with other ones.

a sticky symbiosis

Comment by MaryO:
Not what I typically think of as sticky but it makes sense. The sudden end of the branch is disconcerting. Not sure that's a bad thing as it makes it more evident that the fungi are in a perilous position. I'm seeing a bit of haloing around the fungi and they are a little soft to be the focal point of the image.

I think you should have scored much higher for this brilliant image. I gave it a 10, and can't understand why anyone would have given it less than 7.

Thanks for sharing your method. I really want to try something like this myself.
