Beautiful. It looks a bit like some kind of Japanese painting, or a woodblock print from the Art Nouveau era. So intricate and oranate. 10 from me!

Cool sky. Good silhouette of this very photogenic tree. Well taken from a good perspective. - Inspzil

Super duper silhouette! My only gripe would be to more of the wonderfull tree. Good job.

I love the silhouette of the tree. The only thing I don't like is the branch sticking in from the other tree at the top right. I know, mother nature can be so contrary sometimes. Anyway, great shot overall.

Really beautiful. I am assuming that you used selective cropping and couldn't show the entire tree because of the surroundings. One of my favorites.

A very nicely composed photo. Great clarity on the branches. Nice background and sunset too. I cant offer any suggestions for improvement, but at the same time this doesn't really jump out at me either. All in all though a very good photo. 8 md

what a lovely composition..the knarled,leaning tree draws me into the photo..the landscape is well proportioned and the misty sky caps it off. good job. One of my 10's for the week.

I love the compostion of this and the light is wonderful. Beatiful scene, well captured. I guess it must have been some work, seems like a remote place and light like that is something you only get at sunrise and at sunset. :)

Well done!

challenge met wonderfully. i like the hints of color in the sky from the sunrise, and the fog over the land gives everything a somewhat mystical feel. the composition is really nice, too, with the tree in the front clearly being the main subject and framing the tree in the bottom left and the landscape. the black frame also works well. nothing i would change. high marks :)

I love this photo. The range of colours is great, the silohuette of the tree is wonderful. It's a very interesting picture, and technically well executed. The border sits well, colours are natural yet interesting, focus is good, composition is very good. Well done - one of the best.

Best of the lonely tree type.By cropping in the main tree I think you gave it greater emphasis. Pretty cool I hadnt thought of that.9

I am really liking all the landscape photos. This is a beautiful sunrise. I don't get to see the sunrise here cause we are late shift workers, so we are up late, and sleep in. I love the fog in this shot. The tree is beautiful. Very nice silhouette. The touch of green grass is just enough to balence out the pink sky. Very nice shot. Good luck in the challenge.

I like the dark tree in front of the light background. Seems a little too tight, maybe if you could open the shot somewhat, so that we can see more of the background.

I like you have done here. Tried to do the same, but the sky wasn't working with me on my shooting day.
