I think you suffered for having a simple image in a challenge with so many visually powerful images. That said, I'll admit to voting this a 4. It just didn't grab me, the branches seem blurry, and the tight vertical shape didn't capture the grand feeling I have for the sky.
On the other hand, Don made it a favorite.
Simplicity can work for the broader voting audience, though. Look at BradP's entry, as well as his challenge entry "Solo."
Just accept you didn't hit the mark with most voters, decide whether you like it anyway, and keep shooting. :) |

| I only gave this a 6 because I'm a shortsighted narrow-minded DPC voter, but the concept here is wonderful and so very poetic. |

Brown Ribbon! Way to go Hotshot - I always wanted one of those. (I always wanted blue ribbons and universal accolade, but sometimes we have to be a little practical). The picture idea is fascinating of itself. I dare say if you edited the hell out of it, say with a couple of sharper silhouettes/details of the branches, both angled slightly upwards with lots of sky space above them . . .
Still n all - move on :) |

| Was there a purpose in making this so thin? It's not a good look expecially with nothing much in the frame. |

| I just don't find this photo that interesting. It also seems to suffer from a lot of noise. |

| I like the crop here. Good idea. The image it's self is a bit boring. Not much of a sky. :( |

| It is sky, and it does hold a certain interest. I think that is needs a bit more to really hold the viewer. |

| I like the way you have cropped the photo but I feel the photo lacks on technicals. Seems like its very tightly cropped and jpeg artifacts are visible.5. |
