Comment by Gringo:
This is so dynamic. It has everything. It is simplistic yet has wonderful texture and detail. It has great complimentary colors and contrast. Each of the elements are perfectly spaced and it doesn̢۪t feel crowded. You have just the right amount of grass. The shape of the branches, the colors and the softness of the grass give it a surreal feel.

The border is a little bold for my taste, I think I would cut it down to about ½ of it’s current size.
Absolutely excellent work. 9 - Gringo

Lovely light and shadow and unusual but successful choice to go in close and lose the tops of the trees. Feels more intimate.

Wonderful use of light and muted colors. Really like the way the branches stretch across your image. One of my ribbon picks this challenge.

I really like this one... and wonder how you got such effect with green. Pretty artistic stuff :).
