We have many like this on our dune coastline. Your image is interesting, well composed, sharp and has good exposure. I have liked looking at it and reviewing it. Very nice photo, well done!

You can really tell just how this tree is growing, that it is rugged and trying to survive against it's environment. You did a really great job at showcasing the struggle in this picture. Thank you for sharing!

Wonderful painterly photo. I like the colors. The branches seem as if they are reaching towards the sky. The only suggestion I have is that the sky and ground have equal spacing which makes the tree appear smaller. I would crop about an inch off of the bottom. Good work!

I like the colours that you've captured in this shot - the sky, clouds, dunes, grass all contrast wonderfully. I do feel that the main focal point, the tree, is a little lost though. Possibility of re-cropping a bit closer perhaps? Just wondering about the angle for future reference as well - would it be possible to shoot from lower down so that the tree is against the sky?
