interesting comments, because I chose this crop on purpose: I wanted to underline the grasping 'movement' of the withered piece of wood. Seems, that didn't succeed... So, many thanks for commenting - I've learned something.

cheers,

Wolfgang

I like the blue light offsetting the very alive green. I also like the details in the ground. Like you, I appreciate the composition. I think it provides a sculptural feel to the tree bark and I do find it uplifting in spirit. My first thought was that the blur toward the top was distracting. It seemed, for me, to be getting in the way of something. I have a feeling that if you had kept full focus throughout the main subject, the composition would work better. You managed some very sensual curves here.

many thanks - again for an encouraging comment and a good suggestion. I see your point. Unfortunately, this time I cannot easily correct it (too blurry for any sensible retroactive sharpening). When taking the picture, I intentionally chose f4 for blurring background and keeping attention on the sapling - yet, I see that a sharper top would have suited better.

Best regards,

Wolfgang
