I just wanted to come back and say that I thought this was an outstanding and way, way original idea....trees in the woods watching a projector screen is so bent, I love it.
This is the sort of quirky brainstorming ideas that can clean up in points...you could ace a challenge with this. All you need to do is work on making it more obvious.
I also like the rectangle shape of the picture. ( like widescreen )
As for giving advice on photography, I am crap (can I say that?), as I am only a beginner.
But I do know enough about photo modification and presentation to understand about audience impact.
Please, keep that imagination pumping out these great ideas.

Isn't that interesting ... I just knew that you'd get several comments from people who couldn't see the trees at all! (Just imagine how many of those who didn't bother to comment also saw no trees as well)
There are some totally awful monitors out there, and people are using them to vote and also to process their own photographs.
I strongly recommend that you start a forum thread that posts this shot and asks people to say what they can see. People need evidence of how bad their monitors really are, or they just won't believe it. Some still won't.
Oh, and congratulations again on this clever, adventurous photograph. Don't be dismayed that most didn't understand it. Alas, that would take a lot more that a new monitor! |

indistinguishable, but great idea. (eg. "what trees" ?). Some sort of adjustment with the lighting is needed. |

Not quite sure what this is, but it made me stop to take a good look at it so you get extra points for interest! I think I'd like to see more definition of the trees. 8 |

Maybe if you shot this with trees that are closer together, the light would be more dramatic. |

What a wonderful, absurd photograph! It's one thing to have an idea as "out there" as this, but quite another to be able to execute it with this level of skill. Among the many things I love about it is the reflected light on the tree trunks. And how impressive that you resisted the temptation to have an image of any kind on the screen. There's also lots of barely-visible detail hidden in the darkness, so the less imaginative souls among us will at least be able to use it as a monitor calibration test image.
In a world of dull, dross and drear, this image is like a triple shot of tequila. Pow! 10. |

Fascinating concept, but it's dark and hard to make out. 5 |

The image is just a little too dark. I love the creativity behind it. I'd just love to see more light on the surrounding trees. |
