I have a Grapevine in my backyard. I'm sure this won't be the only vine picture but at least it meets the challenge. I did enjoy this challenge. My neighbors probably thought I had gone mad or I had lost something. I spent hours looking for something in my yard that resembled a number.

Thanks for all the nice comments everyone. I decided not to title this with a number as there are a couple of different numbers in there so I left it to the viewer to decide.
FIRST IMPRESSION: Good photograph, the number is clearly evident but nothing I would have though of on my own... great thinking!
CHALLENGE: Meets the challenge.
COMPOSITION: Excellent composition. I love the way the vien leads the viewers eye in from the corner, through the tangle at center, and up to the "9" at upper right. I would have preferred a more interesting background but understand this was a natural setting and the backgroung was pretty much out of your control.
TECHNICAL: Good exposure and I like the shallow depth of field, especially given the simple background.
CONCLUSION: A solid entry that was worthy of its top 10 finish.
Thanks for sharing and good luck in future challenges!
Good use of dof here. I like the composition also, rather than just doing a shot of the number item, there are leading lines and and another image supporting the vine. Good job. 8
