I really do like this picture; the composition and your choice to crop the picture to a square (my favourite-) shape. What ís a pity, though, is the presence of your big name/ logo at the bottom of this picture. Else, I definitely would have placed this picture in my top 10...

What a beautiful piece of art this is.... At first, I thought it was not on brief, because I really thought this to be a big moth. When I looked better, I discovered the leaves in it. Very well done! Maybe, it would have been even nicer to reduce the highlights of this picture.

What a luck, that you caught this moment after your rush. It indeed is an impressive giant strolling by. In my point of view, the giant would have been even more impressive when you would have cropped this picture to a square shape ánd would have skipped the adding of your personal details at the bottom.

Brief

See more contest details

Pareidolia is a word from Ancient Greek to describe the phenomenon that the human mind often perceives familiar patterns in a subject, even when they are not there. Common examples are perceived images of animals, faces, or objects in cloud formations, headlamps of cars, windows of houses, and the "man in the moon". Please, show me your original photos fitting this brief. Surprise me, and make me laugh. Photos in colour or monochrome are welcome.
