 I found an old house boat tied to a tree along the Saint Johns River. This cypress tree has been standing guard and holding the unclaimed boat for about a month now.

Hi mate,

I must apologize for the directness... Had to comment as I've commited to do 100% comments and voting for this challenge.

This felt like a sloppy shot to me.
Looks messy and has a lack of composition.
Could have done better by having a tighter crop, neater knot, and some post processing..

you're welcomed to pm me if you need any clarification.. :)
cheers
