Good use of B&W. Good tone and texture but I would like to see the shadows opened up some more.

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

Great perspective and so well done in b&w. When I think of "a single tree", I'm mostly picturing subjects/comps like this. A clean, classic, minimalistic piece. Well done.

Fantastic B&W image. The contrasty feel is really great. The high contrast just goes great with the scraggly, jaggy shape of the tree, which looks like a bolt of lightning.
