this shot has a lot of potential. i would predict that if the tree were on one of the thirds your picture would score at least a full point higher. as it is now, the tree is slightly off-center; which creates an uneasy feeling.

I think an off centered composition would have been more effective for this shot. I'm a huge fan a lone trees!!!!

I love trees, but prefer them with leaves. This is a great image though, I particularly like the curve of the grassy hill as it meets the horizon. The sky is bit blurry - sharper would probably improve this shot as it would fit with the starkness of the winter tree. One of my top scoring images - good luck.

lovely work...not sure about the tree being smack bang in the middle, would have liked to have seen the rule of thirds here, but it does have impact

Windoze! Simple yet effective shot and pleasing to the eye. I wonder if the effect would be improved if the tree was further to the left but then again, it is the main part of the title so hey.
