I would love to come across such a view. You have captured something beautiful here! The silouhette of the tree against the sky is great but I think it is the clouds that really make this shot. One of my favorites!
A carpet of clouds! It took me a minute to see. My eyes are drawn more by the silouetted pine. I think it would be better with the clouds being your main attraction - they are unusual, the tree isn't. Perhaps moving the tree to the edge of the photo, with the trunk framing one side, and then the spreading clouds sweeping out below?
Fantastic shot. I really love the colours of it and the composition. Perhaps, the only thing that damage your photograph is the border. But, it´s just my opinion. 7
this is a photo of a tree with a nice backdrop. western skies are notorious for being large. the tree in the position it is in here lessens the impact of the 'great sky country'. colors and detail are wonderul, but the shot on the whole doesn't do much for me.
