Last of my fall color shots. I liked the way this tree stood out from those around it and the stone cliff in the BG.

I love the comp--great color mix! Id crop a bit off the top and bottom so the red band is completely across the frame. Maybe its just the sharpening, but it looks a bit OOF to me, especially in the large version. Should be easy to tell looking at the original file

Walt,
I really like the combination of color and included elements like the trunks and lichen covered rock wall. This makes for a really nice combination. I can see where Stan was heading with his suggestion, but for me, I wouldn't crop the top, just the bottom - maybe as much as making a square comp. Then after that maybe cloning or burning down the bright cutoff branch as its a little of an eye magnet. The other suggestion is that I think this could use some boost in color and contrast. It's just a little flat looking to me, but that's minor.
This one has great potential Walt.
