Your opinion needed

Hello all! I can not make it to the meeting this week and would like some feedback on a new piece I shot intended for the city hall show before i send it to be printed.The photo is as seen, 4 pictures together comparing different tree barks, all down Park Ave. Does it make the cut compared to my other work? Does it make sense and flow? Do you even like it? Haha, I do but that doesn't mean it's good enough! I would love to hear everyone's crit on this, colettegimour@gmail.com
Thanks- Colette
