...This is a pretty nice shot, but also, a bit busy and cluttered. I am thinking, perhaps, taking it from a different angle, centering the lens upon the black tree, would've made it better. But, thanks for sharing.

I think this could be really nice if you got down lower so we could see the buildings under the branches. It’s not bat though, the colours are good and the shadows make interesting patterns.

NIcely artistic. I like the effect of the sun through the leaves. And I like that we just see enough of the houses to add a little interest and white colour to the background, but not enough to distract from the central point of the composition, i.e. the tree.

Really great colors and clarity. I see what you are describing by the lightness of the greens and the darkness of the tree. It's a really nice shot. Thanks so much for sharing it.
