Hello from the Critique Club.
You received a lot of useful comments during the challenge on this image. In summary 1) Small image: the maximum size for images is 640 pixels on the longest dimension. Yours was 416 pixels. 2) Background: the pinecones in the background tend to overpower the impact of the seedlings. You could have easily have removed a couple and not hurt the perspective you were trying to achieve.
I think your score also suffered because seedlings are not the strongest subject for a From The Ground Up challenge. Even if you laid flat on the ground, which it looks like you did, the perspective will be even with the seedlings and not really looking up. The nine 1's and seven 2's you received show that many voters didn't perceive your image as meeting the description of the challenge.
Please feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique.

| Background is distracting for such a narrow subject - but the idea of size comparison is commended |

| This is great, it should be bigger (640 pixels) though. Looks to be in focus, good DOG, natural colors ... no reason to be so small. |

| The idea is good but the out of focus pine cones takes away from what I think you are meaning as the subject. |

| The seedlings don't stand out well enough against background. |

| It's not really a very good photo...but I like your thinking...I bet it doesn't do well against the competition but I'll help by giving it a 10. Why, because I love trees...the pine cones in the background show the cycle of thier lives against these sapplings. Good luck! |
