Greetings from the Critique Club]
You've told a nice story here, with the barely alive tree surrounded by fences. The story is, perhaps, just a little too subtle for our voters who, according to some of the comments you received, saw the fences but not the story.
While I really like the foreground fence, it would have been terrific if it could have been sharp. For that you would have needed an aperture of probably f16, f22, or more. That's where bracketing comes in. (Once you explore setting your camera to bracket, it's pretty easy to do.) And yes, for a nice sunset picture, a setting of ISO 100 would have worked beautifully.
You've got a good eye for photography. I'll look forward to seeing more of your work. |

Nice tree. Nice framing. Ugly Fence.
That's not your fault though, and you captured it well. |

Good use of 'natural' framing for this shot. You captured an interesting tree, and made an interesting photo while doing it. |

The effect of the wire fences takes a lot away from this unusual shape of the solitary branch on a dead tree. I like the thought process of trying to include the other close layer to both frame the tree and make the fences a feature though, and I kind of think you pulled it off. well done. 8 |

Unfortunately all the fencing really takes away from this shot. I see what you were trying to accomplish, though. It's just a shame about the fencing! |

If you could remove the chain links, this would be a good picture. Good focus on the tree. |

I really like the POV. And the tree is quite original. |

I like the natural frame of the chain link fence and applaud you for added something different to the shot....maybe a link that wasn't skewed a bit might have been better.....but a nice shot just the same. |

For me, although I find the tree itself intriguing, my eyes are too distracted by the many fences. |

I rellly like the way you included the fence in the composition. Neat tree too. |

I like the perspective you chose through the fence. I wish the sky color were more blue. The title is perfect for the shot. |
