Oh cool! I'm glad this is you! I wish I'd had something more intelligent to say in my comment. This is just so much to my taste, the reflections, the texture, the complexity. Love the blue hues too. Well seen and shot!

I like the brightness and shadows on the tree! Enjoyed the tilt. The landscape in the background has a neat almost-monotone olive hue, which serves to deaccentuate it and keep my attention on the tree and sky.

I thought this might be Central Park. Great tree definition. My eye is drawn to their contrasts because Ralph is almost a silhouette. Amazing that you got such a lovely, meaningful b/w with such a simple conversion. I see this extreme depth of focus and from-the-hip perspective (is it?) in several of your photos. It's very effective at conveying a sort of tunnel of loneliness and yearning. I'm initially drawn to the moody foreground subject, but these images also make me want to know what is way back there, beyond my reach.

I like that it's a very complicated tree, like alien antlers :) Your sky is in great shape too, no blow out. The only thing missing is that darn partridge ;-)

Nick was right - Kerry & Edwards were best.

Nice job! That's a splendid score! I thought the brightness with your choice of sepia gave this a spooky old picture feeling. It's almost like you accomplished an in-camera diffuse glow! Amazing tree. Excellent choices all around :)
