Greetings from the Critique Club@@

The first impression of this is a snapshot sense like it was just caught without much forthought as to the composition and the placement of objects in the shot. The sky is pretty - I might've upped the cyan a bit using the selective color adjustement. Maybe laying down on the ground on your back shooting from the bottom up, would have given more of an interesting perspective instead of the "chopped" sense that it has now. Another thought is to desaturate and really apply high contrast for some oomph.

I hope you find this helpful. All the best in the future. Judy

A more creative idea than just pictures of branches, and the colors are nice. I don't care for it that much but it's kind of interesting and it's nicely done.

Cropped too tight losing impact because of the aggrevation of wanting to see what the crane is doing outside the crop.

I like your take on the picture and the blue skies in the background

Great idea. I love the contrasting colors and the imagery. Maybe a little less of the cranes mechanism (on the right) and more focus on the arm and that beautiful sky would have improved the image....regardless a really nice job.

The sky is hazy, and dull, and the picture is overall boring. There is really nothing here that appeals to me except the contrasting yellow against the upper blue part of the sky.

really sorry, but cannot see how a boom on a crane is a branch of any type, but nice photo
