Tree Silhouetted


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Tree Silhouetted
Tree Silhouetted
This little tree is actually growing out from a knoll on the same rock face as the background. Thought I'd try catching it while the sunlight was creeping down toward the tree.

  Brilliant composition. Tom...couldn't be better!
I love the warm colors and curving lines of the rock in contrast (harmony) ..guess you'd call that "harmonic contrast?" with the lone shadowed tree...great work!
