This is one of my favorite trees. It has such character and it's gorgeous naked. :) And it's right off the road, so it's very convenient to get to.

Great tree love how you have it off center. I just wish the right edge wasn't going out of frame.

Lovely landscape. I see why you keep returning to this tree. My only suggestion would be to get a little more contrast. I'd like to see some really black blacks. 8)

Nice processing, really makes the tree stand out against the background.

Beautiful gnarled branches... is it an oak? I wish we could get them to grow around here..

Hell of a tree and fine photo to represent it. B&W is perfect. Great moody image with nicely framing dark clouds.

I knew a tree like this once, it was near the turnpike exit ramp and I used to admire it everyday when I drove thru there. I eventually made a wood carving of the tree.

Great tree. Why do those bushes have black hoses (??) on top of them? I love the sky in this one.

The curled branches look great against the dark sky. Lovely shot.

LOVE it! I am a tree ADDICT this time of year. I need a twelve-step program.

So, um, where's this one? heh. Not that I'm, you know, gonna GO there. I can stop anytime.

Gorgeous shot of a tree with tons of character.

Nice detail. Works well in B/W

I wonder how it would look from a lower angle so that the tree is even more dominant.

I like that the tree is dominant but doesn't take away from the foreground or background.

Beautiful tree with nice mountains (hills?) in the background. You're creating a great series with that wonderful lens. I like your B&W processing.

Trees in winter are wonderful, you have a lovely photogenic one here. That must be the lavender in the FG. Good job!
