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 :)

This is unfortunately blown out... great concept, framing and focus. This would be my winner if the lighting was correct.

love the natural depth of this, but I think you could have played a little more with the contrast (esp background) to extentuate that depth. Otherwise great shot!
