This is a comment from the Critique Club;

What do I like about this shot;
-Great idea with the "shadow". Makes it very interesting.
-Saw that some people didn't like the brown sky - IMHO, I like it. Nice contrast with the tree.

What I would've changed;
-The trees in the background is distracting. Maybe a bit more DOF would've worked well here.
-Bump up the sharpness on the tree and shadow a bit. This will also help to create depth in the image.

Great image and surely deserving to be amaongst your top 4 challenge entries.

Wordplay is not effective, but the image is.

This works well. The shadow looks almost molten, flowing over charred ground or bare rock.

The 'shadow' really makes this stand out from the other 'tree photos' good choice, I hope people dont dismiss it as 'just another tree shot', I really like. Good luck

I like the shadow on the ground. It feels as if the earth is splitting.

i like how the shadow shows on the ground too, though it seems to lack a little focus up front.

Nice shadowing and clarity as well as background color.

Love the trees and the negitive shadows, but the "brownish sky doesn't add to the image. I would have loved to have seen the sky black.....

I like the foreground, the background doesn'v work out very well. The colour of the sky is very dominating.
