Good perspective -- Sanibel is a dream place for me.

The way this is framed splits the image in half, seemingly the "white, cloudy sky" half and the "deep blue sky punctuated with fluffy clouds" side. If this split was intentional, I'd be more interested in seeing more of the blue side (e.g. to the end of the palm fronds) and less of the white. I really like the perspective, but I think that this may have been a more interesting composition if the tree split the frame at a more interesting angle (e.g. from the bottom left corner to the top right corner). Using a shallower DOF might have also offered some interesting alternatives.

Beautiful blue sky!!! I like the angle of this shot. I'm not sure if it's solar flare or just brownish leaves, but it's slightly distracting. Great focus on this shot.

Great depth of field and lots of detail.Some of the sky looks a bit overexposed and the very bottom of the tree trunk looks to be in rather soft focus.

technically the pic is ok - but doesn't IMO suggest a dream

Different angle, could have been better showing more of the branches imo

This is my second go-around =) - I live in Florida and I dream of being elsewhere =) The right side is too hot... the sky disappeard and the branches are too faded. Cropping it to portrait from the middle of the trea to the left would have been soooo much better. The right side really takes so much away from this photo. I love the angle, texture in the trea, and color of the sky. If the right side looked like the left or cropped the right side out then I would have given it a 9, as is I gave it a 6.

CAnt help thinking this would be nicer in portrait format with a wider lens.
