It should always be about your person eye. If you try to please others and not yourself, your photos will often suffer. In my opinion.

Terrific processing. I like this a lot, Jack.

Its a beuatifully shaped tree for sure!

It's a "tree with character," as my old art teacher would say - I like it with the snow stuck to its branches!

Gorgeous!

This is a tree worth re-featuring. This is a gorgeous textured take on her.
Your framing is interesting and excellent with the handsome tones of the tree.

Terrific processing !

I can see why you keep going back there

excellent 5****

The air shaft. He who gathers momentum and grows. Now without wings. Fell in the cold. Imagine your life now friend. A life that beats within. Teach your old friend in the snowy picture and imagine it reborn shortly. Then covered small green wings that quiver in the wind. A tree is now a visual poetry. A work of art painted on a blank canvas for an experienced hand ... God's! Magnifica thank you very much for teaching your old friend! Best regards, Adela

... y muchos, muchos besos y todo mi agradecimiento por la imagen de hoy! Adela

Très très beau

So painterly in its crispy details & hues.

Very beautiful and graphic shot ! Well done !

Very good image and processing, 5*

Magnificent presentation and superb processing. Great job. Good day.

What a gorgeous tree, winter reveals all his branches and power. Extra tones and contrasts. Your presentation is lovely too.

Very beautiful !

Really a beautiful picture !

This is a gorgeous picture, Jack. It would certainly do any wall proud!

Wonderfully processed and yes, the little bit of color gives it life! It looks like that is mistletoe in the top of the tree; we have here in our oaks also.

Ah, yes, this is a fine tree with many tales to tell !

Lovel done !

Superb details. Great shot.

A tree with character and fully decked out in it's winter finery! Well done Jack! ;-)

Lovely shot - always a wonderful feeling to revisit such places knowing the light or season will be different.

It is well worth another visit.

what a splendid tree, what a perfect photo!

The tree is still very appealing with a different look in each shot. This is a fine one!

A fine tree and excellent processing. The sky looks like it was smeared on with a paint knife.

I love the "finges and tinges" of gold and brown! That just makes the image even better...the detail on this tree is awesome, Jack! I like the nature of the limbs going every whaich way! Beautiful detail!

A cute caption to this post. This tree presents a lot of nice textures here. It's amazing how much the subtle colors "pop" here. Are those red berries I see in the bottom right and bottom far left?

great shot : )

very expressive processing!! i love this strong contrasts!

Toujours magnifique.))

trés belle photo ,le traitement est excellent.bravo pour cet excellent travail!

Beautiful composition!

This one just dances....beautiful!

Beautiful shapes and wonderful processing!

I agree totally with your comment.
While this tree may have been around before, what you have done with it this time
really works. Your images are outstanding with the process you use. I actually found myself looking
at Nik Software recently.

wonderfully detailed photo! the tree has a haunting and slightly grotesque look to it but i think this is where its beauty lays! great work on the processing!

gorgeous!! I just love it! Your statement is so true.

I love the very busy texture here. Tones are wonderful and subtle.

A venerable friend indeed. You bring its old soul to life.

Beautiful shot.
I'm hoping next year we get the amount of snow the rest of the country got!

Superb...love old tree and at this time of year with all the branches display...

woow, c'est magnifique !
