I like this, but I'm distracted a little by the processing. For my eye, it was sharpened a little too much. This results in a bit of aliasing in high-contrast details, particularly the top edge of the bumper. I didn't like what it did to the texture of the trees, either, but that could certainly be a matter of personal taste. Despite this minor shortcoming, I do like the subject you found and captured. Giving it a 6.

The idea behind the Posthumous Ribbon is to encourage you to break the rules, to find new and different ways to express yourself. To free your mind to think clearly toward the solution that is certain to come, to laugh at world and at life, not doing what others are expecting you to do, but just following and listening to what's in your heart. DPC it̢۪s a wonderful learning place where everyone should be supported on their way to be a photographer. A special attention should be aimed to those working hard with different views and approaches to photography, those not aligned with the mainstream taste and receiving no recognition. It̢۪s our responsibility to support these photographers creating diversity and expressing different visions. Being active at the Posthumous thread it̢۪s the best way to do it. Being active at the Posthumous thread it̢۪s the best way to protect your and the other̢۪s freedom of being different. Thanks for taking the time to enter this challenge. Stay wild.

I love how we see two imminent but opposing forces of nature -- growth and decay -- in competition here.

Great motive! I think the colors may be a bit distracting here, for me this would look better in B&W. Still, great picture! 8
