I started thinking about the other picture I wanted to submit, it's boring and really shows no talent at all. Although this picture is busy, that was the effect I was going for. Looking up form the forest it can be really busy, I tried to fix the fact that the picture was busy by fiddling around with the angel of the shot, so the elements of line and space correctly...

IT looks as though I am viewing the world through a bugs eyes.

This is a creative take on the challenge theme - one that comes naturally to mind, and you certainly can't be accused of not meeting the challenge. ;^) In general I like the composition. The first diagonal (from bottom left) leaf is distracting. I get the impression that including the sun was intentional in your composition. It's a good idea - but this lighting is challenging and personally I think it's overexposed. A faster shutter speed, tighter aperture, or some filters could have helped tone it down a bit. If your camera has exposure compensation that could have been considered by setting it to say -2.0. One last consideration, did you think about exposing to create a silhouette? With the plant patterns it might have been rather unique (minus that diagonal leaf of course - ). Good luck in the challenge.

The whites are over exposed and it's generally kind of blurry. The shot is great in terms of angle, colors, lighting and what not, but the focus and exposure detract from that.
