I am in awe of this image, and especially love the sepia tones, as it gives it an aging quality, all of its own.
Wonderful capture, and you should be very proud of this one.

Catherine! Ohmygoodness! What a powerful, BEAUTIFUL tree! Made even more dramatic and striking because of that winter wonderland it is sitting in. I didn't get to finish voting in this challenge, and I sure wish I had because you would have then had seven 10's!

You know. . .for a minimal editing challenge, there were some truly phenomenal photos in this challenge, this most definitely being one of them!

congratulations on a great score, though it should have been top 20 at least. Beautiful, stunning photo.

Cool shot. I think the compositon and sepia are really nice. To me, it just seems a little bright though. Congrats on a nice score there Miss 6.

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 :)
