I saw a glimpse of this tree in passing on the interstate for sometime until i finally parked on the side of the highway and took the 1/4 mile trek through the woods and field to get this shot. it's my first dp shot with my new camera and first submission in quite some time.

Very fine, thoughtful composition. I applaud the deft use of so few elements to suggest a meaning to the viewer, especially as you have not told the whole story, but have left something to the viewer's imagination. So good to see a mood established without the use of brutal, Wagnerian post-processing. 9.

Wonderful shot. Not quite as strong as some of the other similarly toned expressions. But I say that guardedly, because I would be thrilled to take such a shot. Well done.

Composition is very nice. For me though I feel that it should be much more sharp.

I think I'm glad you're back too ;)

the tree looks a bit too grey IMO, bump up the contrast and it might have a bigger impact.

I think with some tweaking of the contrast, this has real potential. It's just a bit too dull as it is. I like the composition and the leading line.
