 This tree was growing out of a hill of stone. I thought it resembled what I imagine the claw of a prehistoric bird would have looked like. And I thought the spot it was growing in was so interesting.

My first submission...

Nice take on the challenge. The photo title makes me look at it differently.

I might be missing the point, but I don't get the feeling of perspective in this photo compared to others in the challenge. It's an interesting tree trunk though.

It's a good picture, but the area of visual interest is flat. To my eye, perspective doesn't play a great part in this picture.
