Another great and threatening composition Su! I really like the frame you chose (the alley not centered in the frame) and the work you did with PS (i think you used the tool of PS that correct against the light exposure and adds a kind of infrared effect on the branchs of trees). Striking mood! #411106

William C. Raco level-classic March 06, 2004

Excellent image, Su.
Love the effects and composition!
The branches contrast so well against the leaves and sky.
