Taken not specifically for the challenge, but I thought it might work. Probably will still get hammered, but I thought I'd try!

Looks like a portrait of a tree. There's some heavy pixelation visible toward the middle of the frame.

lovely remake that is much more interesting visually than the original. Thanks for the tribute

I like how the limbs are reaching up, as if trying to catch that cloud.

Well... The original was one of Charliebaker's "high art" concept shots. A lot of us secretly admire him for those :-)

The challenge was "Anything but Landscape", and from my perspective this *IS* a landscape photograph, so...

I donno. I don't see it as an "improvement" in any realistic sense of the word, 'cuz how can you improve on a perfect picture of blue sky? Know what I mean? He didn't take Brown because he fell short of his concept in any way; he executed his concept perfectly. It's just that most voters don't appreciate what he does (not that I blame them) so he gets pathetic scores when he does this stuff.

Forgive my rambling. It's an OK image in its own right, not outstanding to my eyes but interesting enough. I give it a 5.
