You'll probably have some people tell you that there's too much empty space on the left, or that you shouldn't use a centered composition, but I think that this is lovely.

Shouldn't this be turned vertical? It looks more like from the right left as it is currently oriented.

You might want to consider rotating this 90 degrees clockwise and cropping out the partial palm tree and some of the empty sky at the top. This would provide a strong leading line from the tree trunk and the top of the tree would be at the upper node of the rule of thirds. Otherwise, good focus and exposure and I like that the colors look natural and not super saturated. I'm going to give this a 6, as the flaws are easily fixable. You got the hard part right.

Even though some may think this breaks normal composition rules I think it works great.

I think cropping the other tree would help on this one?
