Nice composition and interesting take on the challenge. The negative space at the bottom is a nice addition. Two things distract me, 1. the negative space at the bottom I believe would of looked better uniformed (constant black), 2. the band on the wrist. Other than that a great picture. 7

Nice scene and a good job making it a nice photograph. Your processing is good IMO, not over or under done. Colors a great in the foreground and sky and the tree does pop out. Wish you well in the challenge. bump 10

Hi, Your composition really does not do your picture justice along with the POV. To score high in the challenge your going to have to make that tree pop out at us. That would require a lower point of view and separating it from the background. You needed to take the picture at an angle where the sky behind would not have been blown out. As you can see the tree limbs are almost the same color and texture as the grass around them so everything become busy and the focus are is degraded.

I hope this comment helps and I wish you well in the challenge.

Nice idea on the composition but the photo is blown out to the point it is very hard to judge. You must have been shooting into the sun. Next time you may want to try shooting with the sun to your left to get more detail and it will help loose the sun glare.

Sorry but I just don't get where this meets the tree challenge. Good luck in the challenge.

Morning Fog

The center composition is a bit distracting to me. I would have liked to seen it off center, possibly only have the tree in the photograph with the great background colors.

With that said I feel this is a good, smooth shot with nice colors. Congrats 6

One of most natural looking fog shot that I have ever seen. Hard to pull of those shots. You have to have everything right and you did. I really cant see anything that distracts me and would find this photograph. Congrats 10.
