well, of course it is wonderful when a tree produces flowers, but not in fact all that rare.

Flowers for a tree theme? Too far a stretch for me. Sorry.

So much to like about this. How the snow pops off his fur and the disc, the texture of the snow popping off the image, the contrast of the black and white, the movement the image conveys...really good image.

Grand composition. Clouds speeding towards the viewer, road running away. I thought of Steinbeck. My favorite in the challenge and a favorite

Wow it’s been nearly 4 years since your last ribbon :)

And yes black-and-white was an excellent choice.

Congratulations, huge fan of those clouds, and the stream of rain pouring down.

This flat plain blossoms into a bounty of lines, as per the challenge, and also gives so much more delight. The road and verge lead to a vanishing point. Then there are the fence lines and the vertical lines of the storm issuing from a horizontal feast of clouds. Very "North By Northwest"-ish. The varied parts nicely come together.
Personal favorite of the challenge.
