Wonderful image John. The clouds really set off the tree and add a warmth to the image. Great study, BTW.

Yes - very nice! Surreal. A little bit Kenna-ish (compliment - I don't mean derivative). I find the strong contrast of the sky just a BIT distracting though... what do you think of that?

Another Beautiful Image, John! I dont find the contrast to be a problem at all, on the contrary, I find it really makes the image.

Thanx for sharing.

John, wonderful composition. Have you considered a slight crop off of the top? Very nice image. - Sean

P.S. Be glad that your not in Marquette the weather is incredible. It's like winter made a quick u-turn.

Jupp, nice....very nice, especially the contrasts. But the tree is to centered in my opinion.

I was thinking about this image since I made my initial comment- it's interesting that way - it made me realize WHY wide-angles are useful sometimes. It's not because of the 'cool, wide-angle perspective' - but rather, it's because they're incredibly useful for spatial organization and sending elements that would otherwise be distracting to the distant pictorial space. Great for sorting subject from object.
