Composition -- I think the main thing I would change in the composition is to make it a horizontal framing instead of vertical. I understand that that might not have been possible, because I don't know what was to the left or right of the frame, but you may have been able to get the same effect by cropping some of the sky out. The sky is beautiful, but it is most interesting, I think, just above the hills. I like how the tree on the left frames the shot, adn it is also effective how you have used three elements in "layering" the shot (river, hill, sky), though, again less sky would have made the elements fill the frame more equally.
Technique -- I really like how you have captured the colors in the sky, adn I understand how difficult that is to do, and maintain proper exposure. The hillside and the river do appear to be a bit dark, as a result, and the picture, overall, may have been stronger if you could have captured more of the detail in some way. It is well focused, which is an accomplishment in itself when photographing a tree!
Overall Effect -- You met the challenge well, and I found myself hearing "Billy Bob Bass" singing this over and over and over!! (If you do not know who Billy Bob is, you gotta see one to truly appreciate this song!). The colors are very soothing and it is a very nice shot. With a little tweaking, I think it would make a nice shot to hang on a wall somewhere. |

| This picture needs some more exposure, and more importantly I think it needs a subject. It looks like a nice backdrop but is pretty empty - Inspzil |
