Great use of line. Would be even stronger with some other element like maybe a bird or something to focus the viewers eyes.

Interesting, not very creative but it's on topic. (I didn't know knarled was actually a word)

this is cool...but it could have been even better if there was more to focus on on the branches

Try a deeper DOF, you are losing gocus on some if the branches. Also, if you adjust levels down a little you can make them all black.

Great feel for the picture. DOF is a bit low, but that gives a feeling of depth. There appears to be a rainspot in the middle of the shot. I don't think it takes away from the picture because it isn't a print and it's basic editing, but make sure you clean your lens before the next time you go shooting :). I like that the sky matches the mood perfectly, with just a little lumpiness.

Interesting image--very graphic, if possible I would boost the contrast a bit making the brightest portions of clouds even brighter--it's somewhat dull.

Would have liked more detail on the branches. Maybe a longer exposure with a tripod.

good contrast; looks a little bit out of focus though.

This must be part of a really neat tree! For me it might work better seeing the texture of the branches instead of the silhouette.

The thumbnail on this looked amazing. I was a little disappointed when I opened up the image to see the silhouette was not in perfect focus throughout. I think the composition of this is great!!! And the black on grey background works reakky well. The soft focus in parts hurst the image a bit.
