A clear sky sunrise this morning, so I turned to this oak in the early light. Shows typical habitat at St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge.

I love the light, the tree, the composition, and especially, again, the light.

The tree does a great job of filling up the blue sky. It seems to be doing its morning exercise. Nice light.

Beautiful warm light on those trees and grasses David. Comp works well also. I do notice a slight tilt / dip to the right but that is only a minor nit,

I like the way you fit the tree in the frame, David. Very elegant. My only suggestion is to correct the tilt in the horizon.

David,
I might be inclined to call this "Dancing Oak" as this really has almost an elegant pose, as if the dancing score had just ended. Great job in framing this.
I also noticed the horizon, but honestly it's less of an issue in this particular scene I think. The shoreline is receeding and the tree and it's shape and form dominate the image that the horizon is not such a big contributing factor.
Well seen and captured.
