Jon

Ciao...mi piace molto questa foto
la forma dell'albero
ed anche il panorama dietro!
Complienti

Alexia

You have composed this shot well - a beautiful old tree against an interesting background featuring the tower. My immediate feeling was that it might be improved with reduced exposure but I have to admit to liking the slightly hazy appearance - adds to the mood. Anyway I will add a workshop for comparison - hope you don't mind.

Bryan like your last shot think this one is probably half a stop over exposed.

But composition and POV wise it couldn't be any better.

Nice one.

Peter

HI Bryan
I love the soft detailed appearance of your photo, it has a softbrush technique that artists often use.
Dot

nice capture and well balanced, wonder what it would be like as a wide stitched panoramic

I like the feel of this, as well as the point of view you chose. The somewhat, but not totally, soft background is very effective along with the sharp, although not totally, foreground.
Definitely captured a painting feel to this one.
Nice work,
TFS,
Wilt

Hi Bryan - This is indeed a fabulous tree, well worth portraying, all the more so against the background of this beautiful landscape. - Cheers, Cordelia :))

Lovely composition here Bryan
