This appears to me to be a super image and I wish you had resized to a larger size in order that we could enjoy it more.

Small photo, but good composition. The leaves and branches on the top give a nice feeling of depth.

This needs to be bigger, but, I think it is a unique idea for the challenge.

I really like what I see, unfortunately, the image is too small. I'm afraid it may suffer for this alone. I'm giving it an 8.

Too bad it's not larger. It looks like an illustration from a book.
Nice lighting.

lovely picture, but use the full allowed size so we get the most impact. It's too small to get the full effect.

I think your picture is fantastic: color saturation, composition, theme, depth of field. But (and I think you know what's coming) the size is way too small. Was there no way to enlarge it?! BOL

Due to its minute size the image is nearly impossible to evaluate and enjoy. The capture appears to be worthwhile, rich with colour and emotional sense. The composition too appears apt and pleasing. The exposure is plain difficult to appreciate without access to its detailed effects.

I like the feeling it communicates and welcome both title and idea in this challenge.

I would be very interested in seeing a larger copy of this; as it is, it's to small to assess. The colors seem very striking. It has a quality almost like a painting, but I doon't understand the size choice... 6 (could have been much higher)
bumped to 8 as I fine tune my votes. One of my top picks this week.

I have a feeling I would have rated this much higher if it had been larger. It looks like a good photo -- just can't see enough of it to be sure.

It's a shame this is so small because when I squint my eyes and put them right up to the monitor, it looks like this could be a really nice photo!

Beautiful color and composition but it's the feeling it conveys that gets my vote!
