Thing you achieve best of all here is the positioning of the tree within the framing of the shot: it bridges the transition from foreground to distance nicely.
Focus and depth of field and all that technical stuff is pretty well done - though there seems to be a lack of detail: I wonder if it's perhaps cropped slightly too far?
The image suffers most, IMO, from an indecisiveness about what the true subject is: the tree? the peak and the openness of the view? the progression of hills into the distance? If it's the tree, then I think it would need more careful placing against this background (obviously, by moving the photographer, not the tree itself): perhaps at least to exclude the town visible in the valley. There are too many small elements that compete for attention here for this not to suffer in voting in a simplicity challenge.

Cut away a part of the black foreground and it becomes much more appealing. |

Pretty shot. Are those birds or planes over the mountain? Foreground is a bit dark. I probably would have cropped most of it out.. |
