I find this shot rather intriguing. It does resemble a journal. And it is the ONLY flower and rust picture submitted that really appeals to me. Great job!
Creative title. I like the idea here, but it's not contrasting enough from the background. I'm not sure how to suggest improvement, only that it would be nice to have the vine stand out more. Also seems slightly out of focus.
