 I was walking in the forest and saw this. I made much cooler shots of the same (chaotic) plant, but in this shot the twistedness was the most obvious.

I wish I could nail down why this does not appeal to me. I prefer to leave an explanation when I feel I must leave less than a 5, but I can't put my finger on it. It seems a bit flat, but I tried some adjustments on it of my own and I really could not come up with any suggestions.

if this was b/w with a bit more contrast it would have ruled.

I think you'll probably get panned on DPC for this but I like it. I like its simplicity and the muted colours give it a cold, detached feel.

good job. 7.

a little more contrast could have added to this shot
