The touch

Andreas' image from Switzerland reminded me of one of my own that I never posted here. So here it is, a simple picture showing the fleeting and fragile beauty of the alpine environment. I'm way behind to posting here, but I hope to catch up.

You got the perfect spotlight on that tree Dorin, great time to be there.

Nice shot Dorin. Perfect lighting and nice composition. Simple is good!

I like what you've done here, but I can also see cropping some off the top. The light on the lone tree is perfect. Nicely done.

The solitary sunlit tree is really remarkable, Dorin. You captured this light at just the optimal moment. I might consider cropping a bit off the top to more of a pano to simplify the composition, or burning the background somewhat to minimize those details in the back (that seem a bit regular) which would also simplify the comp and make that tree really glow.

Took me a while to figure this out. What fun!

It's a pretty daring shot, and I like daring! I'll go out on a limb and say it's not likely to be a best seller due to all the empty real estate, but it's cool photography!

Not hard telling what the subject is here, that spotlight on the tree is great. A scroll crop from the top seems to further strengthen the shot. Nice work buddy.
