Pre-weekend votes bump; this pic is the only one in green at 7/1.

One more votes bump; the two in the green are almost neck-and-neck.

And neither of them has consensus right now...

[up] Not really keen on that, it looks more like some kind of celestial entity or deity.

[up][up] Yeah, I don't think that has any particular advantages over 1.5 or 3.

On the subject of those two images, I'm still torn between them. 1.5 does a better job of showing that she is nature, as opposed to merely having powers of some sort, but the malevolent appearance makes her look like some kind of demon or monster, which is a major knock against it in my eyes. Yes, Gaia's Vengeance is mentioned to be a related trope, but that's not the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Mother Nature.

3 looks appropriately benevolent, but looks a bit more human (and Moe) than I'd really like.

[up]That's kind of the problem I have with 1.5. Too much Gaia's Vengeance. Both that and 3 are good for different reasons, and on the whole about equal.

How about this? Not as busy as most others, but looks more motherly than 3

I like @34 the most, although I'll also note that the current crowner doesn't have consensus for anything right now.

Since 34 was added so late, I'll give this a few more days before taking any kind of action.

Okay, at this point, all we're going to have is an Image Links page because the only one in the green is nowhere near consensus.

Sometimes I wonder how many people vote down all examples except their favourite even if there are other good or decent suggestions. Sure, if they're already highly voted and it's a matter of picking one of several options with consensus, but when it comes to a trope like this where there are several good suggestions, and then just have the crowner break down because people can't accept anything but their favourite...

For what it's worth, I only voted up 1.5 and abstained on the rest.

[up][up]At this moment I'm counting 37 up votes and 62 down votes. That's a 1:1.67 up:down ratio. Nothing odd or broken about that.

I'm only seeing "The arch-Nature Spirit of Earth" in 34, so I up voted that. Also down voted three of the other images.

I think it's safe to go ahead and call this one. Can someone please upload and add the winner? Thanks in advance.

Caption or no?
