Hello Derek,

A delightful shot of the Scottish Borders with rich colours and a good, 'thirds' composition.
The tree makes a fine, off-centre focal point, from which the eyes naturally run down the hill!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Derek,
Beautiful landscape with sheep grazing and a superb village in the valley. A fairytale shot adorned by the sole tree on the right which is an asset to the whole composition.
Great lighting and sharpness.
A wonderful sky to complement to this postcard!
Nice work.
Regards,

Francis Xavier

Marvelous shot, Derek!
Perfect exposure, beautiful rich color, lovely light and contrast, great wide view. I love the different shades of green and the way the clouds fill in to the left and the tree on the right. What a wonderful scene! Many thanks and kind regards,
Shelly

Hi Derek,
These are the type of photos I like. Wonderful cloudy summer skies and a single tree with a view. There is nothing more I can say, then wonderful! Except that I would love to have taken it myself.
TFS,

Hi Derek, I am a fan of solitary trees, and I like this one. Lovely color, and the sheep really provide a sense of scale. Thanks, Dave

Hi Derek,
A lovely photo. Awesome colours. I can not make up my mind about the tilt of the tree and the fence. Still a great photo.

I know this place! :-)

The composition is nice with that tree on the right edge of the image and we get a good understanding of the rolling hills of the Borders with my home town nestled nicely in the Tweed valley. Postcard shot, very nice!

Hi Derek,
This is a beautiful and moody countryside scene, I like the strenght of the green colour of the field and the clear exposition of the sky and clouds. Idyllic composition indeed, suggests silence and tranquillity. TFS!
Best regards,
Kristof
