A dead tree, leaning over at a dramatic angle on the ranch, was enhanced by an ongoing snowfall and a sky that was just crying out for a dramatic B&W treatment. My trusty 10-20mm Sigma at work again. I was up to my calves in fresh powder snow trying to find the perfect angle. Let's see how this fares...

Congrats on top ten. This was actually the only 10 I gave during this challenge. I really loved the angle of the trees, both forefront and the ones behind.
I like this tree, the use of black and white, and the sky behind it. Nice details throughout, too. I think it would have been even better if the conifers in the background had been straightened in post processing as the way they lean in on both sides of the image is a slight distraction IMHO.
