What's that vertical line?

Love it!! Especialy how you capture only part of the tree, it adds a great amount of character.

Lovely color. I wonder if a slightly different composition that let us see the base of the tree might make this a wee bit stronger.

Great picture. The find the line in the center of the photo (com trail?) a little distracting, otherwise very good.

Like the basic composition and colors in the sky/water, but the tops of the stands of trees look unnatural (like a processing artifact). It's kind of distracting.

What is that verticle line in the center? Is it part of the pic or an error? It distracts me.

Very pretty and nice composition. The white "scratch" in the sky is distracting for me, and I would have cloned it out.
