I don't think the frame works too well; it detracts the attention from the tree line and the main subject. The roots themselves lack any details and they are too messy to be an elegant silhouette. I've tried some roots myself, a while ago, and people didn't like them :( - a 6 from me, just for that.
So you are saying you would have given a higher score but someone else in some other challenge didn't like your entry so now anything with roots in it you will penalize because of this?
You got it wrong. I gave it a higher score just because of that. If you look at your scores, most of the people scored this 6 and 5. I didn't give it 5, but 6 just for the roots. I scored it higher than the average voter. Anyway, it is bizarre to consider MY comment unhelpful when I did provide you more feedback than a simple "nice colors". Yes, nice colors, but all too common and the border interferes with them. Another comment you found unhelpful is saying that the clouds would be better with more contrast. That's true, yet unhelpful for you.
Ah k I see where you were coming from. I was just trying to understand your comment and I do appreciate the reply, Thank you :) both comments since marked helpful...

A bit oversaturated... but lovely composition. Not sure that the subject is very good as a subject... maybe a simple, lone bird would have been better.
From experience I know the balance between light and dark can be difficult. I like the composition, the colors are pleasing. I would like to have seen a bit more brightness on the 'apparent' subject.
