Hi,
Sorry I can't think of a decent title at the moment. This was taken at Wicken Fen, Cambridgeshire, at about midday. I liked the curve of the tree and the colours in the foreground. Hope you like it, any crits much appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom.

Lovely moody image Tom - nice :toast:

Only tiny nit for me is the broken branch that's hanging vertically :wink:

Lovely shot - really like the composition. Very moody.

Really nice Tom. The tree itself is a good shape, has exquisite detail in the branches and twigs, and it looks like nice light is being reflected back onto the trunk from the ground which is a lovely golden colour. The background has a nice hint of a path leading into the darker fog behind. Vignetting works well in the sky but I'd possibly ease off a tad on the three darkest points of the ground - if you squint your eyes they look a bit like dark patches rather than a gradual darkening - very minor point - all I can think of! Good stuff. Tristan

Thanks for the comments,
Tristan I see what you mean, I will see what I can do about it.
Thanks,
Tom.
