*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
A unique shot assumed to meet the challenge.
There can't be many of these shots made last year! A fascinating view of something that most of us never have and probably never will see in our lifetimes. The amazing patterns that the flow has cooled into are quite compelling. I like the splash of red of the hot magma against the drab grey of the rest of the image, I also like your placement of it on one of the thirds hotspots it works well.
The only thing I would like to comment on is that the corners are a little soft. This is presumably your maximum aperture, if so, I think stopping down to f8 would have given you sharper detail throughout even at the same ISO setting.
A very good and interesting submission which did well for you in probably the toughest challenge of the year, well done, Sid |

| The forms seem to be writhing at the lip of hell. Graphically powerful. |

lovely textures.
I also can't stop smiling, because whenever I see/hear "hot magma" I can only hear Mike Myers voice as Dr Evil talking with "finger quotes" |

| WOw - I've never seen anything quite like this. The colors are great along with the composition. Certainly a good example of how a photographer can get the most out of a subject. The only thing I would like is just a smidge more sharpness. 8 |
