Very cool B&W. Not sure about the branches on the ground though. I would be tempted to clone them out. Other than that I like it alot.

Very Nice B&W Danny. I quite like the branches on the ground but I would remove part of the branch that intersects with the tree.
Though only to see if it improves the shot otherwise leave it as is. I would also reduce some of the white empty space above the tree.

I wouldn't change a thing. This is inspiring.

Very cool,,,,,I much prefer this over the color version. The odd format vs slope of the ground give this a weird tension that works for me & the b&w simplifies things.

That's a really strong composition. The white space on top enhances the feeling of looking up the hill into space.
I like the branches showing on the gound. It might answer the question of what happened to the rest of the tree. (Although it could be another tree, for all I know, so there is still some mystery there. Perhaps the dead tree top was used as firewood, since the gound here looks like a man-made environment.)

Love it! Reminds me of a Chinese ink drawing. Wouldn't change anything.

Super. I love what I call trees with character, ones that have grown into odd shapes, had a rough life, etc. I wouldn't change anything.

Works beautifully for me, Danny! Nice and simple with great lines. B&W is the way to go with this for me.

Excellent for me, and I like very much the format and the open white space above the tree. Very calm, and inspiring.
