Great shot! I like these old trees with branches twisting and winding in all directions. The branches create a very interesting pattern, which is easy to see when there are no leaves on the trees and the reflection doubles the experience. Well done!

Great photo, very good "soft" effect of the photo, and the reflection of the water is just perfect, good colors too

Hi David,
This looks like a "Tim Burton" tree (something that could be found in one of his movies). I love the soft colours and the perfect reflection. There is a nice peacefulness which eminates from the image.

Hi David,

What a great tree you found and what an awesome place to be in the Serengetti! I love the softness of this shot and the reflection is perfect! Great composition, I like how the grass frames the left side of this shot. Thanks for sharing!

Take care,

Hi David,
A simple subject, yet one can make it really elegant if one knows how to. Wonderful shot! I hope this one gets many many points since it certainly deserves it. I especially love the soft tones and light in this. The reflection is simply outstanding.

hello David,
gorgeous light in this shot, and I think the soft focus helps a lot to emphasise the it's luminous quality. beautiful warm colours, I like a lot how you have composed the photo with the grass on the left framing the scene. the perfect reflection works very well to double the effect of the twisted branches. excellent work, my compliments.

with kind regards,
Kristine

Hello David
I like this photo for the beautifully captured sky and water reflections of the old tree. The shading in the water works very well. Bravo!

hi david
you do have eye for creative things. altough the tree gives the impression of some ghostly hand, the reflection is superb. it looks like a nice cool place (surely with the sun not around). thanks for sharing
