We all shoot 'that' Tree shot.

So i gave it a whirl. What do you think. Can i make this better? Which do you prefer?

Many thanks for your advice.

What a good job you've done there mate. I think the first one is my choice - maybe the sky is a little bright - but I tell you I'd hang a copy on my office wall.

I prefer the last one because it feels more dramatic, but they are all wonderful.

[Vetteography]

I was thinking it would be better if you cropped out the furrow in the foreground of the first one, then I scrolled down... Doh!

I really like the second set , the color one better than the B&W for some reason.

I like them all. I think I may like the first one the best because it shows how secluded the tree really is. Perhaps try going back during a sunset/sunrise or when there is no overcast.

I like the first one the best... In its coloured version. Very nice work!

What's that tree doin there all alone?

[RockOne]

I like the first coloured version too. What a nice green !

Love em, great shots.

Fantastic! Don't you just love these kinds of shots. Well I do. If only the sky was clear(ish) then you could get the (in)famous blue/green landscape shot. :D

I like the first one better because the expanse kinda draws you into the tree and makes you "feel" something for it. All alone in the field, and all that. ;)
Great job! I want some pictures like these!

I like #1 best, I love the tone of green in that grass :)

[OceanRider]

one and two for sure, you could have even pulled back a little more. both are excellent, well done...didi u use a polerizer? That might have made ur sky bluer

[gastroboy]

looks like the microsoft XP bliss wallpaper...well minus the tree of course....very nice. #1 would be a great wallpaper for the comp but I think #4 would look great printed out and on a wall.

[Steve Parr]

I prefer the non-cropped versions.

Please don't ask me to pick between the color or the B&W. Both are excellent...

I like Color all the way! God used color and so should we, at least when it comes to landscape. Very nice "that tree shot"!

[cjm]

Oh yeah and the first picture looks great as a desktop background. I can't wait until around here looks like that, green.

[Skip Souza]

I like the color photos best. I prefer the sky in #1 and the foreground crop in #3. What can I say?

[tengr_68]

They all look nice! Prefer the first one though. Good job!

[Vega$50]

The first one has my vote...good looking shot all around!
