I knew this wouldn't score well but I didn't care, the faves and the comments make it all worth it!
I think or would have done better...
But I really liked this shot.
Snuck into an abandoned 19th Century Greenhouse at sunset, noticed the way the light was hitting this one little plant. I really liked the idea of nature coming back and reclaiming this man-made structure that previously confined it.
Editing to emphasize the plant, darkened all around it and blurred most of the pic to put the focus there.
Thanks for the comments & faves :)

im sure that youre right about the deer doing better ( thats just DPC for you hahaha) but i see much more beauty and creativity in this one. i love how you employ low key shots to produce stronger emotions i feel like the enveloping darkness of the old greenhouse really helps personify the struggling, lone fern.
Woah, this is an amazing, amazing picture. It's so not DPC (like the cute little deer are, :P), but I like this wayy more than a great deal of the entries in this FS. If I had voted, 10 for sure.
I actually think this should have done better in score and placing than it did. I like the single eye catching brightness of nature coming through and reclaiming her place. Very nice
You knew it was not "bankable" but it was worth it sharing a good out-of-the-box picture!
The distribution of patterns and lights is simply amazing. It talks to me. It's fresh air... I regret the score I gave it, it deserved at least an 8/9.
I gave three 10s in this challenge - this was one of them. I for one am very glad you entered it. As, by the comments, are at least a few others. Thanks.
beautiful play of shadows... and shapes! the colors are great ( I like how its greens/golds/and earthtones) & having the sharpest point/subject in the absolute center is great! :-) Kudos!
