<<To the challenge host. I think you are having a language problem here.>>
well john you probably right... but as db said, there will be always people not reading anything beyond "title". i meant the word to be ROOT... and i still mean it.

<<There are more tree roots here than in the ROOTS challenge>>
could be... i am not worried (child love trees :P); lets rely on people's vote (instead of DQ) for discerning which photos meet best this proposal, shall we?

thank you both for taking time to share these "concerns".
good luck, enjoy!!!

PS
for next challenge, i will try to be clearer

You're right, John. But the ROOT of this problem is that people here do not usually read the rules of the Challenges... (It does often seem to me they think if you're a photographer, reading is none of your business.) — Not, IMO, the host's fault (though "provenance" might, indeed, have been a better title for this Challenge)!

To the challenge host. I think you are having a language problem here. There are more tree roots here than in the ROOTS challenge ...
