Interesting subject which might have been better not in the middle of the picture but more to one side. The focus seems off. The sky looks a bit overexposed. |

Maybe with the tree to one side and the sky not so starkly white. |

you loose detail in the sky and the shadows , perhaps a polarising filter would have darkened the sky a bit, but I find myself squinting into this shot to try to see details that aren't there. I also find the crop a bit too tight on the bottom given the space above the tree tip. Nice sense of place and quite though. |

Interesting composition blatantly ignoring the rule of thirds...good. Pity the sky is overexposed. |

The setting for this image is wonderful and a good photo choice. This reminds me of the problem I always have photographing cactus because they are generally much taller than the things that surround them like you have with your subject here. I try to offset it to one side or the other with something of interest on the other side of the frame to balance the image better. Don't know if that can be done here but centering images generally gives them more of a snapshot quality then an artistic nature photograph. |

Very striking. You might consider tinkering with the sky once this is out of the challenge. I think with a slightly darker sky this could be striking! |

Cool shot...but the vertical composition of the tree just doesnt click for me. |

I gave this a four. A closer view might have helped if that was possible. The image is very high key and contrasty. It is difficult to see any detail between the overexposed reflections and sky and the underexposed shadows. The color is rather harsh and cold for this scene. |

Wouldn't it have been grand if the tree had a bird at the top or a nest somewhere on it! It's a good image, and perhaps would have been more powerful had the tree been offcenter. Excellent clarity and depth of field. |
