Beautiful image. Perhaps even better with a less prominent "black sun". Top 5!

Direct representation of the troubles my mother caused in my life, always a threatening black blob in the background, taking me to the edge of bursting the thin membrane of sanity, and there is only blackness in my future.

The first time I looked at this I didn't like it. The second time I looked at it, I thought I saw a face... the more I look at it, I more I think I'm seeing half the face of a bird; a type of parrot perhaps. I did have another assumption initially but I'd rather not follow that line of thought so I'll stick with the parrot.

Great job, you have me curious... decent score coming from this chook! :)

The point of something, maybe a cactus or succulent plant.

I don't think there is anyone who could hazard a guess of the identity of this picture because of the massive blurring. I think it would have been better, in my opinion, to have a little more sharpness.

Oh. This reminds me of

Very nice.

Sigh. The sort of image I wish I had the talent to create and the courage to enter.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is cool, but I have no idea what it is. Could be the tip of a pencil.

Oh!
