Comment by primabarbara:
this is a very unique approach to photograph a tree ;-)
But the fact that you used a mobile and moonlight makes this special. I love the clouds too.
Congrats on the Yellow!

I like the isolation of the tree and the added interest of the fence in front. The fence actually adds personality to the composition. I smiled when I saw the metal post repair! Great sky! I think you did the best that could be done with a cellphone and processing. The B&W works very well. I would like to see this composition done with a camera and quality lens. Maybe in a future challenge! Still well worthy of a ribbon in this challenge.

Reminds me of what I would have shot about 10 years ago!

Congratulations on the top three.

This was the shot I was looking for, except with snow. I'm glad I didn't get it though, I couldn't compete with this photo. Congrats on the ribbon.

Thanks! If this were to be selected as a calendar image--and this applies to most of the images so far submitted--I do anticipate that some cropping choices would be necessary anyway to fit the 12x12 (square) format. I'd be inclined to agree that the negative space on the right could be trimmed down for sure in this one.

Glad this rose to the top! I gave it a 7 but perhaps deserved higher on a second re use as a blue ribbon. :) love the painted face in the middle.
