Early Morning Tree

Early morning, -19C, frozen fingers, hand held. Been getting some good comments so I thought I would put it out. Not really trying for photo of the year, but maybe I could get a few details more than 'I like the tree shot'. I shoot what captures my attention

beauitful picture, i love the mood you captured. The colours are lovely. Is it me or is the top of the tree broken? Fair play to you shooting in those conditions lol

It is a "Charlie Brown" tree. But to me, that's what makes it more interesting.

Good picture but I'd like to see at least half the sky cropped out.

I agree about the sky. This may work well as a horizontal using the negative space to one side of the tree or the other.

Another agreeing on the sky being too much of the photo, I would maybe crop out those smaller rocks in the foreground, allowing the eye to see the lovely colors on the snow firstly. Composition is great, and the graduating colors are fabulous. .

Something more like this?

Yes. Looks significantly better, good work.

i love it

I liked it even with all the sky in it.

It gave it a sense of being alone/left to die

The crop I would have made would have been to get the rocks out of the bottom of the picture

Nice shot. Beautiful. Love the colors.

It works well either way, great shot.

Lots of ways you could do this beautiful shot.

I tried: widening on the left, cropping from top and bottom -- and cheating on the tree top.

OP: Looks like a really nice shot, the more i look at it i think it works either way.
