would be better if it wasn't cropped so tightly, why cut of so much of the tree?

Very nice composition and excellent color, but not quite a still life in my mind.

Does not meet the challenge. A still life is a picture of an object or group of objects arranged to communicate ideas of color, form, tone, texture and composition. Still lifes are inanimate.

Yes it is, therefore it doesn't really qualify for this challenge then does it? :( The focus is wanting and the cropping is a bit tight to me, cutting off so much of the top of tree. I like the colors in the sky, very nice. A 3

i really wish to see this image in the top ten but a little more negative space would have made the picture more balanced.
