Two dead trees. Hmmm...One wouldn't expect this picture to hold one's attention, but it does. The trees seem so in sync they are about to pirouette (sp?). Anyway, the tension in this photo is amazing. Something is going to happen, I just don't know what. 10

This is a really beautiful shot with excellent composition and nice contrast. Great job!

I like the way that the trees are leaning at the same angle. I wonder if the clouds just above the horizon could be brightened to really separate land from sky?

excellent subject, nice tones. image would be much stronger if not such a centered composition. just a 10-15 degree turn to the left would have made a big difference.

Rich and strong minimalist image. Bumbing up. On first pass I had it in my 4's group, big move to 8. I have a sense that a hair more luminance coudl easily have ben attained here, taking it to the top of the heap or near it.

Excellent image. The road surface in the foreground distracts from the overall quality of the photo. I like the focus and sharpness of detail.

very simple and very clean. alot of times i wish i could get a shot without the road in it, but it actually ads to this photo and gives it a good foreground base. This is what makes a good photographer. it wasn't a beuatiful area that you took a picture of. it was just an area that you made into a beautiful picture. I like it alot.

I like the colours and the scale of the two trees, however I would have trimmed off the road on the bottom of the picture to give it more of a wilderness feel.
