Faved this one Kevin. This is a great entry for the contest. That tree just begs for a photograph. Great lines and composition.

Great to see a post from you Kevin !
I like this shot of the skeletal tree against such a bleak but beautiful background.
A most worthy entry.
Good Luck !

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Hi Kevin, love the tree mate and this setting, in the snow really is primo for a bw treatment. Maybe the tree being a bit more off centred would lift the impact, maybe not.

It is not "The powerful attack the weak." it is "The fearful attack what they fear."
I also like the tree! Best of luck to you in the contest:)

I really like this, it is too bad you can see the snowmobile tracks though.
They take something away from the tranquility of this photo.

Hey Kevin, nice selection for a B/W image, contest or not. The white snow, pewter sky and almost-black tree work well together.
Compositionally, though, I find myself wanting to take a few steps to the left. The resulting perspective will place the tree in that gap off in the distance, and block out that (slightly) distracting pole. Or, simply crop out the shrub/trees to the right of the path and clone out the pole.
In either instance you'd be left with a cleaner shot, and the viewer wouldn't have anything to distract him/her from this tranquil piece.
