any way to sharpen the top third of this? I do like the bark, mosquite tree??? and the contrast of shapes, twisted limbs, trunk to rounded hills and mountains. nice colours overall..perhaps shade darker or more saturation on blues and greens? score this an 8 easily and wish you best of luck in challenge :-)

nice idea here. just read an article on how to add "punch" or pop to black and white images..but dang if I could tell ya how to do that. I do know you can add some to this photo and have a really really nice shot...check with one of the PP guru's on the site? overall I give this a 7 due to concept and light from right...gl in challenge :-) 7

you surely made a 'single tree' stand out as subject. If you could do a layer to blur everything other than the front tree and grass line from the base of that trunk and add tad more "pop" to tree itself you'd have a great shot here. overall I give this a 8..gl in challenge :-)

the tree's spikey fronds and the round soft 'ball' are nice...dunno bout the shrubs (junipers?) in lower left...overall the shapes of trees and sun and colors are nice ..7...gl in challenge :-)

Caution
by GeneralE

Comment:
must be one hot tree to warrant 'caution' ;-) lol I do like the texture in the pavement and definetly think you did a good job getting "caution" wording to show on tape. tree lacks interest for me...the caution tape and the pavement grab my attention more than the tree or the trailers behind...gl in challenge:-) 5
