Gray at the Roots

Somehow this subject needed to be isolated more. Maybe shot from a different angle, other time or day, or with a much shallower dof. The blown-out highlights in the trees are a bit distracting, and the trunk of the tree sort of blends in to the rest of the photo and becomes a "busy" photo.

Good shot, but could have used more contrast. Too bad you were limited in post processing.

In general I like it but it is too bright, more contrast would have done good

I see this is your first entry...keep it up, we look forward to seeing more from you!

I think the focus was the reason that this placed last. You had the right idea and a little more care would have allowed for a much better score. The subject could have also been placed in front of a more dramatic background (perhaps a solid black, white or colour).

The first photo I submitted entered last, but in the 5 or 6 challenges since I have improved my photography skills dramatically and I'm very glad I stuck around to learn from the other members here. I hope to see more of your entries in the future!

It would have been great if not the bad focus.

very out of focus, better focus, a more interesting angle could have helped this shot

I think you forgot to focus.
