new photos Twisted, not Shaken

Comments appreciated on this desert shot--thanks.

Nice shot. Simple, but beautiful.

The justapoxition of red hues on the ground and blue sky, mediated by the twisted trunk works fine.

 

The subject deserves such a central stand and to fill most of the frame: this also works for me.

 

What I dislike is the relative "cluttering" of the bushes and the fact that the most interesting feature, the twisted trunk, has a background of similar colours and stands out less than deserved...

 

Did you try shots from closer by, with wider lens, putting the thing against the sky?

Great shot, Robert. And the ground and brush colors set off the rest of the subject nicely. Very interesting subject. Cheers.
