First took this on the way home from dropping off my daughter at school. Didn't realize "it" was greeting me! I like these surprises. I had to go back to get another shot.

Hello and greetings from the Critique Club. I think this was a very clever entry into the Greeting Card challenge. You have a good eye for seeing what others would just pass right by.

I like the simplicity of the colors - the solid blue sky (no clouds), the lush green of the trees and their trunk colors balance this all out nicely for me.

The lighting is good. Photo is very sharp and clear (what people like for when purchasing a card). One thing I would like to see perhaps is some kind of hairline border to nicely frame it all off. Perhaps in a dark green. Using the same shade from the trees to tie it all in.

Again, a truly clever spot on your part. Congratulations, and I would buy this as a blank note card. :-)

Took me a minute to figure it out...very good eye to see that! I'm wondering what a portrait crop would have to this so the tree top wasn't cut off.

I see the humor - a little more space on the top would have served this well.

Like the vision and creativity with this one. A little more of the top of the tree on the left would improve it a little bit, don't know though if it would have been possible though.

Clever, but the framing of the left hand tree letts it down.

Ok, this wins hands down for the most clever. This is toooo imaginative.
