this is an excellent photograph. the colour saturation is wonderful, the outline and shadow of the trees make for a nice effect, and the exposure is perfect.

That is different alright. Love the sunset and how you can see the sun through the hole in the trees. Love the tangled branches. You have framed them in such an artistic way. Great contest entry...you got my vote.

It's certainly a great contest entry. It gives a far different view of beauty in a often harsh and brutal land. Colors are beautiful, the landscape striking. Nice job and good luck in the contest.

Good composition and lighting. Nice shadows leading to and from the backlit trees. The sun lighting its way through the leaves, creating a star filter in the middle of the day.

Nicely composed with very good visual and initial impact. Love the use of back lighting and the effects gives the image the best impact!
Good sharp focus with nice colors and color harmony. Nice technique and very good technical excellence. A lovely view. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful sunset captured with great technique! Love the soft colors of the sky enhancing the starkness of the silhouetted trees with that amazing sun star streaming through,causing long shadows that draw us into this wonderful scene. Best of luck in the contest!

The PoV is ingenious, especial in the difficult position of the camera toward the sun. How the light falls starlight through the tree branches is very intriguing. The view of the bizarre shaped group of trees and their shadows is extraordinary. The photo has a good depth and nicely natural colors. The composition is well framed and balanced.

Very cool. The clarity is great. The angle of the shot if the sun peeking thru the tree is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

A well composed shot with a classic example of a diffraction star. The barren branches of the dead tree frame the scene beautifully and the sunset colors are great.
