Hey there!
This is quite an interesting photo and fits the contest description well. I definitely can see the outline of the rodent, whatever that may be haha. I can also see its right shoulder at is staring to the right. Great photo for the contest!

Quite an interesting and amusing nature image posted here! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of your fascinating tree trunk. Yes, that certainly is a rat face you captured! Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done and good luck!

Now that you point it out I see what you mean, but I would never have seen it on my own. A very nicely cropped image with sharp details. Best wishes in the contest.

I can easily see it too,my friend!
It's as if the 'Rat Fink' ( a not entirely pleasant cartoon character created by the
late custom hot rod designer and builder Ed 'Big Daddy' Roth in the early 1960s ) were somehow petrified in the bark of that mysterious tree!
'Good Show'! : )

Does it say something strange about us to see a Rat's face in a tree trunk? yes, I see it, but I can't say it's something beautiful or elevating. But it does meet the contest criteria. And it's a great shot, nice detail and focus. Good Luck with the contest.

Good entry for this contest, I do see the rat or mouse face in side profile! The eye really stands out!
Well captured with good focus, this image is clear, lighting is well managed, well defined textures in this tree, colors and tones appear natural. Well composed and presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!

This capture is interesting. The shape in the damaged bark looks indeed like the face of a rat, complete with a black eye which has a pupil with a light reflection in it. A brown nose also shows. The photo is excellently focused and exposed. I appreciate the sharpness of detail and the realism of color. The tall format emphasizes the face. The unusual rodent is perfectly placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.
