Comment by HBunch:
In my personal opinion, the trees are a bit dark, and the white sky doesn't appeal to me. I have that same stupid white sky in my shot too though, so who am I to talk? I don't like it in my shot either. Definately appears to be "non humanly altered". Overall I think it's an ok shot. Good luck in the challenge.

They certainly look dark. This may have worked better in B & W. The blue in the sky takes away from the shot IMHO. DPz

I don't like how light the sky is in this shot. I think it would have looked better at dusk with a darker sky. it would have felt a lot more eerie. When the blue sky is covered up this shot looks a lot cooler.

Felt the sky was too bright and the foreground too dull.

I think John Cleese said it right. "and now for something different"
This is a decent job. I like this shot. I think the lighting with the flash is a tad bit harsh. Your motion is good and you blur is nice. Personally I think the focus was a little weak. I would not hang this print in my house, but with a little tweak I could see this as an album cover. Good shot.
