Excellent find! I love this, it's so different from all the others and spilling over with irony. Nice job.

Nice humorous contrast in the sign and tree ... I might have gone for a tiny bit more contrast in the photo.

Simple and has a photojournalism appeal. I wish there were a bit more contrast on the ground.

You could really get lost in that forest.

Too little is in focus and it it too dark. I expect that the twig is a tree, but you cannot tell because the bottom of it is entirely lost in the background. Longer DOF and more contrast in the foreground would help.

Thats clearly out of the box... I like it but maybe would do few things different. Would prefer composition when the tree is in more on side of sign then behind. Also would crop off the part of fence post on left side. Anyway nice to see creative photo.

The Lost Forest???

I get the irony, but I think the image would have been more effective with different lighting and maybe more depth of field.

VERY NICE! THIS TELLS A STORY!

This feels underexposed. I don't mind a dark feel to it, but this is hard to make out what's happening in the background. I can see the one tree-twig there, but I'm curious about the ground around it. Are those baby trees, burned out stumps? Knowing that would change the meaning of the sign for me, and really change the feel of the photo depending on which it is.

I expect they will replant it in times to come, right? I wish there was more light on the ground so that I could see what the story might be about.

poor masking?

nice bit of irony... would be better with greater DOF
