First -- anyone who's done one of these side challenges knows ALL about the "oh, shoot, if I don't do one today I'll never do one again" kind of shots. So don't worry on that account.

Second -- this isn't so bad. The shapes and lines are interesting -- busy and hectic. You almost get a sense of being held by the tree. Nice job. :)

Bizarre colors. Kinda like being lost in a nightmare, or something. Hey! Wait a minute. . . .that gives me a challenge idea. :)

This is a very cool shot, Jon. When you have some time, do a little processing on it to bring out all the beautiful colors and textures. Love the lines of this tree!

Yay for you for hanging in there - this shows us an interesting facet of you and your life, just as the less-rushed photos do.

First of all, I love that it does in fact look like you climbed up "there" to get this image. And I like the processing, as it gives it a bit of heightened sensation (for me at least) with the angle.

And secondly, I am VERY glad you haven't quit. I really enjoy the things you say.

What are the little red things? You did a good job with the perspective. It does look like you climbed up and pointed the camera down.

Lucky you - this is my 1999 comment.

What an interesting idea for a photo. Wonderful perspective. Someone like me would take the photo from the street below - looking up. It looks like a beautiful lamp. I bet these add quite a bit of charm to the area.
