Ian, This looks just like what I find here in the low lands of the Wisconsin River Valley. You captured the feel of this place so well in this image. It invites me in and I want to explore this area.

Fine composition. I like how those back trees seem to sprout from the large tree. Well seen and presented. There is a fence over there but I won't tell anyone. Nice job.

Very pretty Ian.  Great composition and the color and contrast present a happy image.  Excellent detail in the large version.  I find the fence on the left to be somewhat distracting but not a deal killer.  Still, I might try cloning it.  Well done.

Beautiful woodland image, Ian. The old willow anchors the scene, and I find the image well composed.

The glow of the leaves is spectacular, Ian.  That glow sets off the fine shape of the tree very well.  A view that has me wanting to explore the area slowly and quietly.

That is a very nice, old tree. I am on the fence with the fence, though. Nice light and color.
