After a detailed discussion with myself and a thorough analysis, I've decided that this is one of the best tree shots I've seen in a very long time. I'm especially impressed with the detail you captured in the tree bark. The bark is a wonderful color contrast to the blast of red. I like the way that you handled the bare sky to keep it from burning into the shot. One of my favorites of the week.
Stunning colors in this one, Richie. Would have called instantly the fire brigade, lol.
Thanks for this fine post.
