Sticking Together ( Color or B/W)
The roots of a large gum tree in the rainforest of Queensland Australia. Covered in colorful lichen. Color/ B/W or not at all!

What do you think? Critiques Needed!

B/w Version? Conversion look ok?

The conversion works well in my opinion, and I think I prefer it to the color.. however, the color version is good looking, too.... I think it is the detail that makes the B&W look so good..

Color. And I too wish the big gob of whatever that is on the right wasn't there...
Is that all one tree and all of what we're seeing is above ground? (... 'cuz you said 'roots' of a gum tree) If so, that is one gigantic, buttressed tree!
