Wonderful dramatic sky and a very nice silhouette.

I like the title and the richness of the B&W. 8

Nicely composed and excellent cloud drama. Perhaps a little too dark.
Post actions
Nice perspective, nice processing. And I just love puffy clouds. I wish there was a touch of color in here somewhere though. Still a 6 with a possible bump to 7.
Post actions
yes this is Tao! the energy is in the clouds.

this reminds me of zueszen - not a bad photog to be compared to. I'm betting this is too challenging of an image to do well - but I hope I'm wrong and this is getting the attention it deserves -

The tree is far too dark to be the main subject.
Post actions
Either way, it's beautifull.

This is my favorite photograph of a single tree submitted in this challenge! Great work. Excellent black and white. Perfect sky! Good luck for winning this challenge. You have a 10 from me!
Post actions
Nice. Clouds overpower the tree a bit.
Post actions
Coming or going this is very nice! My preferance for this picture would have it with a 10% shift lighter in gamma and a leveling of the horizon
Post actions
Very cool and moody. This could easily ribbon.

I love it, clouds are fantastic. Well done.

I wish there was just a bit more detail on the tree - I think. But it's a fantastic shot none the less. It's so powerful and moving. Exactly the kind of shot I like to see!
Post actions
Pretty billowing clouds there. It's a little on the dark side down below though.
Post actions
Excellent b&w tones in that awesome sky. It would nicer if the tree was more in front of the whitest parts of the clouds to be just hair more visible. Well done!

Stunning clouds but feel they distract from the tree. I like it none the less.
Post actions
good black and white, the clouds are a true show. perhaps the image is a bit too dark in the dark side.

awesome shot, great title! 9

now if this challenge were "clouds" you might very well win this one. I have to 'hunt' the tree? not sure how I feel I'd change this..dodge the tree and horizon? maybe even give the tree and ground color? 8 for clouds 5 because there is a tree in shot. overall I give you a 7..gl in challenge :-)

Fantastic sky, lots of drama and suits B&W well (not sure about the title thought) :o)
Post actions
Love your cloud cover here. Very dramatic and creates great drama and mence for the tree. Fantastic composition and exposure.
Post actions
love the dramatic sky and how the tree seems to be it's audience. 10
Post actions
ummm - great conflict here.
Post actions
LOL on the title. :)
Post actions
Love the title. Beautiful clouds as the backdrop. Is the horizon tilted a smidge?
Post actions
Absolutely setting with the dramatic sky. Great concept. Well composed. But on my calibrated monitor ... too dark.
