Great contrast between the light on the ground and the threatening darkness of the sky!

Nice detail! Are those clouds or smoke? The lighting combination is unusual!

I like the tree, but I am ambivilent about the the sky. Seems a tad over manipulated to my eyes. Cheers@!

The sky is wicked I reckon!

The processing looks good to me - I don't think it is overdone. With the gloomy weather - it could have looked 'dingy' and lacking in contrast straight out of the camera. The added luminence to the greens and the detail in the tree makes this great. Are we supposed to comment on photos just as they come - or the end result? :)

Good stuff - a stormy sky could be just dark with no character but the speckle pattern contrasts well with the variations in green in the plants.

Excellent shot. Looks so dreamy and like scenes from Lord of the Rings. :)
[I had net connection problems today. And when I came, I was amazed by the comments on my last picture. I added a note to the image and decided to keep it another day.]

You gotta love cool looking dead trees. What a great shot.

I love dead trees photos. And this one , in the mountains, remembered me how much I love the outdoors. The photo is excellent.
28 Feb 2007 5:26pm
Death indeed with the dead trees, and brooding dead clouds.
28 Feb 2007 6:30pm
Awesome sky to go along with the tree.
