I really like the detail. I feel, however, that the grass on the lower right is a bit of a nuisance.

This photo may not win the competition: it is not the prettiest or the most dramatic, but it is one of the most remarkable in terms of skill. There are a lot of good photos in the competition that many competent photographers might take. This one took some imagination. Almost any treatment of this space and its photographic capture other than the one we see here would almost inevitably result in a mundane photo - one that might average about a 4. For example, the tree in the foreground perfectly frames the frosted or illuminated trees in the valley. The road, which is a potential disaster, weaves its way through the photo, almost out of site. And those little white wildflowers add interest to a blackened tree trunk - a trick which allows the photographer to spend a lot more conrast on other parts of the photo.

Very nice the way the tree limbs frame the distant trees, nice tones

A little lacking in detail in the shadows on the tree, but nice dynamic range and composition

Excellent use of full range of tones/zones while capturing the details of the landscape. Composition is a bit off, with the base of the tree cut off along with a right hand major branch and the small white weed/flowers making a corner impact without seeing where they are coming from. I like it though. Nice work.

Beautiful. Congratulations. I bet this is pretty in color too. I like how your photo has layers, small white flowers, black tree, stream, white trees, forest, sky, the composition is excellent.

The tree in the forground has drama, wish you had skipped the ones on the mid left
