I like the perspective in this shot. Most people (or at least I) would probably have included the entire tree, but you chopped the top part off which I think is very effective. It gives the sense that the tree is big.

Thanks Romen. I tend to lean toward more abstract compositions rather than traditional. For me, the crop forces the viewer to appreciate the lines and textures of the tree, branches, ground roots, etc. more than if it were simply a documentation of a tree. Thanks for viewing and commenting. #8443
