Quite a nice moody.. isolationistic desolate shot. Could be a little sharper for me, really.. but the mood is conveyed very well.

Beautifull picture. Should be a top ten in my opinion.

Very minimalistic photo as far as detail goes, which is what I think makes the mood of the photo all the more dramatic. Great job!

Endurance? looks to me like the tree wants to walk right down the hill and out of the wind. It looks so human - this is wonderful - 9

Nice composition and your title concurs.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The simplicity of this I love. I think you have captured a great image with the the two curves (of the hills) and the single palm. Great shot.

Too bad the challenge wasn't prevailing winds ! Very nice!

stunning composition and visually gorgeous. the very well chosen title really expresses the solitude of the tree muchly. the silhouette and greyscale works great, and really, this tree was a super find for the challenge. can't imagine how it could be even minutely improved or made more awe inspiringly likeable, so 10.
