Interesting, but maybe a little too busy. I know you couldn't wait until after the leaves fell, but this might have been more effective with bare limbs. 7 Swash
the lines here are great - and u were clever and wise to go b&w because it emphasizes the choice of the lines u cropped to - carefully done and admirable. great pic! 8 sgtpepper6344
Love the b&w, and the shadow and light. Composition works well for me, and the available light was just right. Moderate to high visual impact for me. lhall-8
