I really like this, its great how the tree is both the dominent feature and yet remains part of the overall.
 
Wow this is an extreme example of something that happens to me. The leaves on the near tree look green: blue-green on the right, olive green and into yellowish-green on the left. It's not subtle at all. Color perception is very strange. Great print!
 
@NedL Hi Ned the colour is not exact to the print, I can never correct the colour and I hate digital editing (because Im bad at it). Blotchiness is probably more of my lack of experience the fiber base paper is very finicky.
 
It's my eyes and brain, not your print or scan. I often see green foliage in black and white prints.
Just to test ( yet again! ), I cut out a little section of your image and used the color picker... the parts that look green to me are really shades of brown. One time someone here at APUG uploaded a black and white photo that included an American flag, and the stripes looked vaguely red to me... I had to download it and sample the color to convince myself that there really wasn't a red tinge to it.

My dad is red/green colorblind, I wonder if that is related in some way?
