Little contrast, little color sat, resize for web, sharpen, add border. That's it.
I shot it out the sunroof while driving down a country road on Sunday afternoon. The light was great, just wish the sky had been bluer.
I love this shot, but I'm not sure how well it will go over w/ the voters. I predict it will either get a 4 or be a PB (which at the moment is 6.6518), and probably get a validation request.

Just to answer the "no composition" comment. Yes, it was accidental, but I did several of these, and chose the shot that had the best composition. Not only did it look most like an actual tree (the others were even more abstract), but it had the best range of colors, and the tree branches obey the rule of 3rds. (Which is the main reason for not cropping)
