I love the way you captured the light on the tree, helping it stand out from the cloud bank. The heavy diffused light adds to the beauty.

I realize photoshop work was frowned upon for the class, but if you either cropped the lone branch on the central top of the tree, or added another branch to fill in the gapping hole, I think the overall composition may be better. #1181576

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed.
