Hello from the Critique club
An interesting image that meets the challenge
What a marvellous subject for the challenge, so much potential, and you have certainly managed to find an interesting tree here. I love its twisted shapes and the lovely light falling on it but I don't think you have made the best of the opportunity. As one of your commenters has already stated the power lines are a huge distraction but so too is everything else. Your DOF is too great, though a larger aperture at what looks like the wide angle end of your lens would probably still make everything too sharp. The background is too busy and unattractive.
I think you could have created something much stronger by going in closer on the fungi and isolating this part of the trunk and branches against the sky thus eliminating those distracting power lines and making the most of the lovely light.
Thank you for your entry Marcel, hope you had a lovely festive holiday and a creative New Year to you. |

| An interesting looking tree. Seems like it is reaching out an arm to me. I like the subject, but I think another perspective could have perhaps impacted me more. |
