But I can't believe it. To show cauliflower for fractal... so original!!.And I find your version so boring.
I know, It's people choice...
Myself... I'm, from now, out of this crap.
Ps: It's not about my entry, but more about the real quality you can find in the top 5 of this challenge. (and it's nothing personal about you)
