Hmm, no ribbon:( I'm gonna have my camera for dinner today now.
I agree with Pedro about the sky. I also wanna add, that I really don't think there is any need for the texture of the tree being visible. The tree's shape and it's placement in the landscape are important in this image, not it's texture.

This tree could do much better if you adjusted histogram and used soft filter,also you could go higher quality up to 140 KB!

Great content and composition and very quirky idea. Though I like the edge of darkness in the clouds I think this is let down by lighting - there just isn't enough light on the tree and foliage for my liking and a little more natural light would bring out the zingy yellows too. Nice image though and an unusual and creative challenge interpretation.

This tree looks like it's been through the lightning wars. Great natural shot. It's too bad the clouds have very little detail though the yellow on the ground carries this image. Maybe showing a touch more of the ground would give the image more impact. 7
