I'm pretty sure I smell Jeb or Vivi on this one, considering the MGB in the background. I really WANT to like this image, but the minimal editing has tripped it up. The whole thing feels washed-out and a little clumsy :-( Reds are especially hard to render in JPG, so that's part of the problem. I gave this a 4.

If you cropped out the bottom half of the picture, you could TT easily. That subtle red car is very clever. A 5 from me. A 7 or 8 if you kept the top half of this picture

Comment by ubique:
This is perhaps the only entry that takes a transcendent approach to the challenge theme, in that you are reflecting on the way in which nature works its wonders to perform. Your subject is tiny, generally unnoticed, yet your framing is global. And the beauty is that this works; in spite of virtually any obstacle encountered, this spreads magic every day. The picture is technically excellent too; not just sharp and nicely in focus, but it has a lovely implied yin-yang graphic dimension that reinforces your homage to the cyclical interconnectedness of the seed with the plant. Which is the parent? A beautiful question to ask, isn't it? 9. Thank you.
