It has been so dry this summer, that the leaves on many trees have just dried up. This limb was draped so elegantly, that I had to photograph it.

Fine use of light and shadow here. Almost chiaroscuro.

This is a very artistic image. I agree with Morris' comment. Fine image.

As already said, very effective use of the light, Lucy, to create a very artistic image. This would also be effective with the image cropped from the top to about a 4 x 5 ratio, and any remaining remnants of the upper branch cloned out, leaving just the lower branches.

Lucy - Well seen and some good lighting helping you there.
I like this very much - specially how the branch going up is trying to balance the ones below but I also like purely from an aesthetic perspective the composition suggested by Scott.
