Interesting, the way the shadow from the one tree almost connects up with the other tree behind the barn...very cool. Great catch. 8

I actually like the extrasharpened trees against the blue in this photo, makes the shadow tree stand out Nice.

There are things about this that I really like, but also bits that I dislike:
Pros: The shadow of the tree that almost perfectly matches up with the real tree is amazing, and really well spotted. The composition is sound, and I particular like the inclusion of the tank(?) in the background, which helps to provide depth.
Cons: Over-saturated for my taste, and also (I think) over-sharpened - the branches and twigs are somehow 'wrong'.

A bit over-saturated and too contrasty for me. But nice composition.

Oversaturated and oversharped, but otherwise and really nice shot. Love the tree shadow matching with the emerging tree behind the barn. NIcely seen and shot.

The shadow of the tree on the wall, and the way it appears to continue behind the barn in the tree branches is really artistic and well done. Problem is, this is so processed it is hard to appreciate the inherent beauty. My eyes are having trouble settling anywhere.

too much sharpening and saturation. for me, the processing spoils what could have been a very nice image.

too much post processing. halos around the branches sky is way too blue. The crop is too tight. I think this could have scored much higher if you were to step back get the barn in its natural setting maybe from a low angle and just a few tweaks to curves or contrast.

absolutely overprocessed skies

the tree shadow takes away from the cool barn ...
