A very good photograph in b&w. Used to seeing scenes like this in color. Like the lines presented by the trees. The contrast between light and dark areas is superb. Composition excellent. Impressed me!
Classic subject! Maybe not quite enough ground/foliage to balance all these white trunks. Also, on my 2.2 gamma LCD, the image is a bit too contrasty. But still a 7.
Interesting idea. Would've been good for the parallel lines challenge. I like the way you can see not just hte ones in the foreground, but also distinguish the ones farther away. This probably isn't under your control, but it just seems that in the whites on the tree trunks, it's washed out and you lose some detail. Outside of that though, stunning (and dizzying) picture.
