Very creative - I like how you can see just the hands. Beautiful image too, the sepia tones are lovely, and the copmosition pleasing to the eye.

Love the setting! Hmmm... so that is what a tree-hugger looks like, eh? :)

The sepia is good. I wondered about a little more contrast? Anyway - 10!

Waldo was pretty easy to find here, but I don't mind; the image itself is strong, and stands on its own aside from the challenge. The capture here, the lines, and the framing by the trees are quite strong. The tones are wonderful, with the highlights working well so bright against the otherwise darker shades of the wood. Bumping this up to a 9.

I almost did a very similar image. Went a different way in the end. I had blowout issues. You seem to have contained yours better. Nice composition.

i see the hands of a tree-hugger!

What great trees. Waldo seems to like your trees too. ;) I like the slight sepia tone here, and nice composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Yeah... nice :) Like the hands idea. Not sure the sepia conversion has worked for you here though. Looks a bit flat in the branches. Could be just my eyes?

Very cool..

Great idea with the hands. I was getting ready to spend time looking and then the hands popped at me. Great composition. The blown out spots are a bit distracting but I'm sure it was difficult with the light you were in. Nice shot.

Tree Hugger! ;-)

LOL...Waldo's a tree hugger!!!! Wonderful shot and the diagonal composition works well. Find mysef stunned that these trees have grown so uniformedly. Excellent capture. One small minus is that the white of the sunlight seems a touch blown out on my monitor

Well done. The sleeves are a little distracting. A nude shot would have been more appealing. :) But it's a great overall image. You've balanced the tricky lighting well, and the desat works. Some burning may have helped to enhance the contrasts further.
