Very good DOF, a good poster.

The DOF looks like it was indiced in PP. Too harsh a line. I could be wrong, however, but it looks like a false shallow DOF. Overall I like the pic, though. Seems like it would be a good one for a motivational poster with just a different slogan attached.

I wish I saw more of what the tree is trying to grow through, the tight DOF makes a beautiful image but I'm not sure how hopless it's situation is.

Excellent! How about a bailout - air hammers to open the crack, soil additives, organic (I'm a green-empath) fertilizer...and GM stock for shade.

THAT looks like a real de-motivator poster. Most do not. Good one. 8
