Hi James
Well done . This is a real pleasure to the eye. Composition is great. The tree looks stark but has come through its labour.

Hi James.
I like the composition here. The endless plains with the solitary and bare tree up front. I would suggest just cropping a little of the top to give the tree and the plains a better focus and at the same time getting rid of some of that flare on the right hand side.

Regards

I feel like I'm there, all right. Wonderful mood piece.

I notice the sun glare on the right -- did you take one with the sun and crop it out? The white halo sort of makes the lack of sun like something missing.

But I do love it!

Hi James

Great shot again, i know Burrator pretty well, i camped out overnight by the reservoir just under Sheeps Tor and man was it cold! Wish i lived as close as you, i try to go bouldering and walking there as often as possible. You should check out Dewerstone Rock...i have some pics on TN if you're interested.

Keep 'em coming

Hi James you can almost feel the cold!Good POV and good composition; the light is good too the way that it highlights the rocks and catches some of the clouds.The tree shows how windy it can be up there; it completes the scene.TFS,

The shape of the tree, its placement in the frame is just superb. I like the gradual the blue color creates in the sky.
Fine shot!

well James.
I like the shot, the composition is very nice and you had a good pov, the light is to heavy and that's a shame. I think a carper format will made it better. then is the damage of the light not so strong. Farthe a good eye for a good composition, well seen and well done.

Hello James
The landscape looks harsh as you said. You've composed the shot very well with the almost barren tree grabbing the attention, placed so well in the frame. IMO it may be better to crop a bit on the right & increase the contrast a lttle bit to show the FG. But compositionwise this is top notch..well captured

Hi James! Exceptional composition. Your tree gives you a sense of freedom and loneliness. I like the sharpness and the perpsective of you photo. Very nice!

What a dramatic shot you caught here!
Really nice composition with those endless plains and the sole tree in the foreground.
Bravo, Cristian
