 In the silence of a fog-soaked morning, a lone cypress stands like a memory suspended in time. The birds perched among its branches add just a whisper of life to the stillness.

Going for a more artistic entry for this one.

I’m inclined to agree about the contrast but this still has a huge appeal to me...

I love the scene but not convinced of the edit. The contrast seems off, it's a little muddled.. maybe dodge and burn would have helped, or maybe you liked it that way. Who knows, but to me I’m not 100% convinced it’s mist, or edited to make it look so. I could be wrong though.

I like this overall. Did you consider pushing the levels to brighten it a bit?

Your image is beautiful, it doesn't seem like you were noticed.
