I like the composition and it definately fits the chalenge.
I think the sepia toning and some added contrast could enhance this beauty.

Nice compostion, something about it gives me vertigo for some reason though, (not that its a bad thing) I like the choice of B&W for this one. One thing that might have made it more appealing for me is the removal of the seat on the ground from the picture entirely, although one could really start looking for something and come up with some symbolic meaning for the seat being on the ground maybe in combination with the vegation starting to overtake the chair reclaiming borrowed natural resources.
