I liked the color tone shift from cool to warm between these 3 eucalyptus trees in Maui. Compression is killing the web version though :frown:

I like the streaks of green and red in the trunks Kartik. Appears a little bright though. I might be temped to bring down the overall brightness just a bit. I surely like the graphics and color though.

The IQ shown looks fine to me.
Interesting and nicely composed.

I like the diagonal flow and the spacing of the three trees, Kartik. The coloring of the tree trunks is also very fascinating. Beautifully done.

Striking colours and patterns in the tree makes this image pop.
Might selectively reduce the greens around the tress to bring more emphasis on to the trees themselves.

That's really neat! Really like the green and red streaks in the trees. I agree with maybe reducing the saturation of the rest of the image a bit so the trees stand out more .

Nice Kartik. I agree this needs a large version; best part is the trunk detail. A zoomed photo from a perspective a little to the right that removed the separation between the trunks and the surrounding vegetation, if possible, would make a nice abstract.

Wonderful colors and textures in the trees Kartik and a very nice comp. I agree about darkening the grass and backround to bring more focus on those great trees. Very nice as is though.
