The life forms are numerous and visible. Excellent title, by the way.

great composition, although I probably would've cut some from the bottom. Congrats on the bling from Paul!

Sadly, I only voted 3/4ths of the FS this month and forgot to finish up, and I missed this little gem. Glad to see it got some recognition from Paul. Nice shot.

Comment by Paul:


Awarded for the June 2013 Free Study, for the reasons identified below.

This image has caused me to stop and pay attention. That means it is in my 7-10 voting band. (Voted earlier)

Additionally, it is highly interesting/eclectic meaning it keeps me here long enough to offer a longer comment and a vote of 8 or more.

This is one of my 10s - I like it very much. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:

1. Stunning composition - reminds me of an image I saw a long time ago on 1x.com - I may try to find it for you later.

2. Great story and mystery here - the figure is an excellent inclusion. What's his story?

3. Fabulous exposure, I particularly like how the grass is put into silhouette.

4. Wonderful aspect ratio and framing.

Overall, a very enjoyable picture.

At least I understand this photo, but it just isn't capturing my interest or imagination like so many others have in this challenge. Keep trying though.
