Coastal Eucalypt Tree, Great Taylors Bay - Bruny Island, Sth. Tasmania

I'm aware that the sky brightens considerably from left to right in

this exposure, does it look odd or distracting and should I crop the

right 1/4 frame out?

I love the colors and very unique tree, great job!

Hi Matthew.

 

Just my opinion, but for me it is slightly distracting that the lower branch crosses the horizon. I wonder how it would look if the shot was taken from lower position closer to the tree so that all branches would have the sky as a background.

The sky looks little distractive but personally i wouldnt crop it out, i would try to work on it on post process or do the shoot again. Scenary is really nice.

Why mess with it?

 

Cheers ... Mook

 

P.S. I have it as my wallpaper right now. I love it!

A wonderful scenic shot. Great perspective, wonderful color. db

Do not crop. It looks very good as it is. You could have done very good photo without tree but tree as main subject and landscape as a background it looks even better IMO. No ratings, as I don't do them anymore. a s l a

Thanks for all of your comments, I'd love to go back and re-shoot this tree - one day......I'll print it off as is.

 

 

I really like this photo. The way the tree slumps to one side. almost if its reaching for the ocean. The green contrast against the blue skies really stands out making this photo very enjoyable.
