Nice night scene, but I'm lacking an interesting focal point. Dig a bit deeper into the scene and feature something that tells a story.

Oddly, the feeling of this image is more of dread than of placid to this reviewer. The dark areas are forbidding - almost a scene from a murder mystery in which the serial killer hides in the dark pockets amid the light pools as seen in some of the more Hitchcockian genre movies. While in general the technical issues are well controlled, the slightly over done whites are a distraction - a little less exposure and control in post processing would have helped. A good solid image into the challenge.

This capture could use a bit more focus and maybe a slight tilt to the left although it may have made your tree look a little lopsided? Also would have cloned out the 2 trees sticking over the horizon on the right.

I bet this is a beautiful tree when it is in full bloom.

This tree's going to get out no matter how hard they try to fence it in.

Very nice take, but it would have looked much nicer if it had been really sharp.
