I love your lookalike tree. It is fascinating. The angle seems perfect. The roots seem to be grabbing at something to steal. It was perfect for my six-word story. Thank you for making it available to Fanstory.

Though I haven't written anything for a while I too am a member of Fan Story. I know how important it is to have just the right image to match what you've written. I'm honored you felt my image was a match. Thank you for the lovely review. :o) Helvi

To get a review like this from the creator of the contest is a wonderful honor! Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed my entry.

Yes, I can see the octopus. Very clever entry for the contest. Right upper corner is a bit blown-out (over-exposed) but a relatively minor problem. The subject itself is strong.

Hi Anne, Thank you for the wonderful review. It's always fun to discover images like this SO glad you liked it!
Comment from outsideMAN
Its a great tree, no doubt about that, in a fine classical composition. Focus is good. For me though the shot is either just a bit overexposed or does not contain enough contrast because I feel that the tree looks to light. This can be fixed in software fairly easily.
Nice try! Good luck in your contest!

Hi outsideMAN, After I read your review I went back and added more contrast. I'd love to know what you think now about the image...and thanks for pointing that out to me. Hope you like the improved image and thank you for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed the octupus tree image. :o) Helvi

I am pleased that you did as I suggested! Yes I do think that this one is a better version than the one I remember. Now I hope you won't tell me its still the same! I still like that there tree!!

No, It's not the same I did change it. LOL I always pay attention to what others say and your suggestion was a good one and much appreciated. Thanks Again!
Comment from chickadee
Excellent contest entry with awesome focus picking up the unusual growth of the root. Nice d.o.f. for definition and perfect natural colors! Nicely framed with a wonderful natural b.g. Beautiful capture! Best of luck in the contest! Uncanny resemblance to an octopus!!

Hi dejonga, I saw this tree on a trip to Concord Mass, at the Old North Bridge. I thought the roots of the beech tree there were pretty awesome. Love it when I find thngs like this. Thank you for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed the shot!

Story telling good
Good focus point
I do see the octupos

Interesting how this turned out from growing over the years.

Hi Donkeyoatey, It always makes me happy when I know I'm not alone in seeing a look-a like. I'm glad you saw the octupus too. In this contest It wouldn't be much of an entry if I was alone in that thought. LOL Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the wonderful review.
