Wasn't sure about this image until I blew it up from the thumbnail, but it is a strong well taken shot

I gave this a 5 because.... well... it's ... blah. The tree is dead center, and there are way too many distractions ALL around it, trying to grab my attention away.
Perhaps being very close to the tree, and shooting upwards at a sharp angle might have minimized distractions and added interest. Perhaps even zooming in on just the spiky top part might have worked, too.
