 A macro taken in low sunlight. I'm a sucker for punishment. I think it's creepy and beautiful, though. Tv of 100 made for an underexposed photo.

Reduce noise, curves, black and white (not at full opacity) and curves again. Crop, resize, usm.

I have no clue, but there's no straight lines and meets the challenge. I wish the subject matter was a little more interesting.

Going for the brown? I can see one gorilla, but I can hardly see a connection to the challenge topic. Must be because there's nothing in focus, all noisy instead. If you like it, hang it on your wall, but don't expect to score high here.
If you're not posthumous yourself I'd recommend to ask him for a comment, he should be amazed of your talent.
