Comment by 777STAN:
I understand that "topless" in many ways has been equated to "nude" or "without bikini top". The terminology seems a little misleading to anyone who doesn't speak Western-style/American-style English as a first language. I wonder if "TOP"-less would have cleared anything up at a glance. (Truth is I don't think any wording would be 100% understandable to everyone 100% of the time due to all the languages in the world.)

Bottom Line: This is a great minimalist photo that is very stark, clear, and simple. Now as to the challenge, this appears to be "Only Top" instead of "topless." I'm still willing to give you a "10" based on the strength of the image and the boldness of its simplicity! :)

Could have done with more contrast, needs darker, stronger colours on the branches to offset the massive amount of white

Nice image, except for the stick at the bottom and that this doesn't give me topless. Why is topless have to be nude? and how is the tree nude? just because there are no leaves? Doesn't work for me.

Good starkness, perhaps more contrast needed.
