It must have been a tough decision about cropping the tree tops and leaving in more blank sky or using this version with less empty sky. A good partly cloudy day would have been sweet, but we can't do much about the weather. Beautiful scene BTW.
A difficult scene to work with. As a photographer, I would want to 'get down' so it doesn't appear that I am standing over the subjects but I would also be conscious of the back ground, which has a great amount of interest in and of itself. I think you did it well, considering the limitations you must have been working with. Something in the editing feels a little off though - I'm not sure. It feels like guassian blur was added. Whatever it is, it removes the naturalness of the scene (for me). At any rate, I find the image interesting. Thanks! 6
