I like the concept of the photo. I'm on the fence about the crop. On the monitor, it looks like too much sky/foreground. However, it might look very cool the way it is after it was framed/matted.

I'm unsure about the crop as well. Otherwise, agree with the beautiful simplicity.

4" taken of the top and added fast frame.

Great shot. I was with TTK about the crop from the top, but now that i see it i like the first one better. Maybe 4" is too much. Keep the frame.

I liked it before the crop and frame - proves the 'less is more' theory.
The crop and frame really make it - one to be proud of.

I was going to suggest cropping some off the bottom, but what you did was good, I think.

The 2" crop is perfect. Now you just need a wall to hang it on.

I think I like it but wish for the foreground to be darker, the foreground being the brightest distracts my attention away from the tree.
