Christmas Tree

Very strong.

A powerful sihouette, and a good gradation of colours. Although the 'Rule of Thirds' has loads of exceptions (and your pics is one), it might benefit in balance terms from the tree base being 10% futher left, and the horizon being raised also by 10%. Great pic antway - well captured.

Thanks Marlin - I took a number of shots of the scene - including one with a balance more like your suggestion.

I couldn't make my mind up which was better so left this one in colour and converted the other to B&W.

I'll probably put it up, too, eventually.

Thanks again for the suggestions.

Great graphical composition!

Hiding the sun behind the tree underlines your main subject even more! I like the colorpalette of this photo (black and orange / yellow)!

Congrats

Carl
