Hey there from the Critique Club
My thoughts on the image: This is an excellent capture, but it seems like the voters felt that it missed the spirit of the challenge topic. Even still, the composition of this image is fantastic! While I tend to agree with bassbone in that the dead wood does not feel like the subject of the image, you still did a great job with the image.
My ideas for improvement: With this image for this particular challenge, I think you would need to fill more of the frame, if not most of it, with the driftwood. Doable, but I am not sure you would end up with the same, high-quality capture that you created.
Where I would have/did score this entry: I did not vote in this challenge, but I, too, would have most likely been harsh with my vote. Again, wonderful image, but it doesn't feel like dead flora to me. I would have given this one a 3 or 4. If it had been a more landscape-type challenge, this would have easily hit 6 or better. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric
