I almost submit this one to the effects of water challenge, but I imagine that the ice and humid ground would call for DNMC votes and I have other shot that I liked a lot too, .
I wish it would have done better in the score so to have it in my front page, but I think is ok given that is a free study.
Thanks to everyone who voted and commented, appreciate the time devoted to it.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: As a lapsed geologist, I really enjoy this image, the illusion of a fossil within strata is highly effective - made more so by your choice of aspect ratio. The communication of texture is excellent and this is emphasised by the lack of colour.
Critical stuff: I suppose it lacks a bit of depth but that's really part of its charm.
