 Probably too busy to do well in a challenge, but I like the strong lines here with the occasional leaf. I think using the large branches to frame the smaller ones adds stability and makes the photo work.

An odd resolution (more like a single chore), and the cluttered branches don't make very appealing image. What if you showed a person tangled in the branches to make the resolution more urgent?

Not enough detail in the tree itself, maybe fill-in flash would help?

Well it does need pruning! The photo, IMO, lacks a clear focal point.

the photo is very reliant on the title.

You have a lot of work here in this jungle, nice B&W shot.

LOL - only those who have OWNED a fruit tree can properly appreciate this one! (Mine were cherry and apple trees - and they NEVER quit needing attention, do they?!) 7

Interesting B & W abstract. Not the most ambitious resolution though!

I like this shot a lot because it has both elements of simplicity (there's black and light gray, but not a lot of intermediate gray) and complexity (all the little branches).

It uses pretty much the whole area of the shot (ie, the corners or a side are not bare in comparison to the rest of the photo), too.

Good Job.

Without the title this doesn't fit at all. I honestly don't know how to begin making this photo better so I'm sorry, but I'm voting a 3 :(
