Gracefulness

This image was a result from my 4 weeks patiently waiting for the

right weather and light conditions: the tree was illuminated by the

moonlight coming behind the camera and some thin clouds floating in

the air, plus it was a very calm night. A quite long exposure captured

the movement of stars and clouds above this graceful tree, which

seemed interesting. Thanks for viewing this image.

Very nice shot Yan!  Beautiful light, beautiful tree!

Gracefull and simple, sometimes its the simple things in life that bring us the greatest rewards and the greatest peace. this image with its simplicity in composition, its simplicity in colour balance make it a great image. it is so well balanced and the (if not photoshoped) movement in the sky give it the movement that is neccesary for balancing the timelessness of the tree standing gracefully in the scene. very well done, for me this is Excellent and deserves a 7

Compositionally, the image is very good- the sky, the tree and the ground are fairly proportionate.  I love how the light rays in the sky draw my eyes upward.  The fact that the tree is not centred provides interest.

Solitary trees are one of my favorite subjects, and this is very nicely composed and illuminated.  I also appreciate your willingness to wait for the right conditions to get the photo you envision in your mind.  Your patience and persistence are great attributes.

The 'decisive moment' clearly illustrates here in your image otherwise it would not have come out as dramatic as this. Beautiful 'single tree landscape', well exposed and composed. Regards! - Lester
