A lonely tree next to a small lake in Finland. Clouds growing in the sky. As an eager photoamateur, what should I do? ;)

That's a very nice shot! Full size must look great...I guess you got some jpeg artifacts on the clouds from resizing...

Definately a keeper!

Thanks for feedback, Deltroid. You're right, the resized version is lacking the technical and tonal beauty of the original picture.

I like this ... I am also a big sucker for shooting trees ;)


Comments and crits are much appreciated.
