I like the light and overall composition, but would enjoy it more if the closest part of the tree were more in focus. That would have required f/16 or higher rather than f/3, a tripod or a dozen exposures (to get one good one), but I think it would have been worth it. Of course, now that I look at it longer, I might have framed a little different: either crop the few trees in the upper the left corner or include more of them. Finally, despite all these ramblings: I like it a lot!

Thanks Chris!  I did go back and re-took this one the next day at f8 BTW, and did a slightly different composition.  The particular lens I used for the above photo works best at wide open, believe it or not (18-105 Nikkor).  I did the re-take with my 18-70, and the near part of the tree is sharper.
