Definitely worth another look - was one of my higher scores as well.

This is a great shot, it received an 8 from me. I love the light and the darkness to it, for me there seems to be a sadness or depression in the look. Great work.

As you know, I thought this was fabulous and accomplished so I've offered the WALL? (Worth a Longer Look?) award in your direction:

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: A very interesting image which gets better and better the longer you look at it - give it long enough and it becomes rather special indeed. The tones, textures, grain and focus are all deployed to perfection. This is photographic mastery.

Critical stuff: Nothing (of course)

Overall: Dying to know who shot this - utterly accomplished; it makes me feel a little embarrassed about my work which is pedestrian by comparison.

Funny, from the thumbnail it looked like tires. It's a great pattern.

Beautiful sky... I think I'd like to see more of it and less of the grass.

The curve of the vines add really nice lines. I also really like the reflection in the water.
