Eva,
I like this image very much.The begining of decay is very detailed and the color in the next wave is wonderfull including the small blade of grass.I can see how it might not be a WOW image for many but it is for me.Two thumbs up.

Eva, you show us that decay is part of nature and life, and must not only be seen as negative process. A very consistent and expressive composition.
