I love the playfulness/curiosity that the umbrella brings to the photo! Perfect in black and white!

Beautiful Contrast, however, I dont get "safety" from this. But I love the picture.

No, you're not. I can clearly see you. You're standing on the big branch in the lower left. The smaller branches above you make it look like your inside a Pyramid. However, I should warn you that there is some weirdo with an umbrella sitting very close by. It is a good thing he has an umbrella in case he falls it will slow the descent to the ground.

Love the facelessness. Very cool shot all around, from the strong contrast to the composition.

Back to comment: I have to believe that the majority of voters will have trouble relating your image to safety. I do find the overall image to be interesting. The perspective and leading lines bring you right to the umbrella. However, your b&w conversion could be better, as I would like to see more tonal range/contrast in the tree trunk. There is a great tutorial on b&w conversion in the DPC tutorial page.

Very surreal. the B7W of the umbrella blends in with the tree tiop nicely.

This is unusual, not sure what it's trying to say? Looks pretty cool, though I'd like his face to be a little brighter.
