Wow. Very stark contrast. I like it.

I like the patterns in this Kris. There's an interesting broken branch sticking out horizontally, on the 3rd tree from the right. It's pretty much spot on the 'thirds' intersection, best location for it too.

I really like it. Very minimalist as Pentaxophile said. It's the sort of thing you can imagine done very large on a whole wall in a public or corporate building. Part of me wonders what it would look like with the complete trees, but I suspect it looks better just how it is.

Is it a bed-sheet or curtain ?
I could see that as printed material.

Great shot, Kris. Is it more or less as shot, or a crop? Particularly interesting as I try to ensure either tops or bottoms of trees are included. Leaving them both out makes this an abstract as opposed to a landscape.
(Must be a great camera, by the way!)

Only a slight crop on this one, I may give it a touch more. And yup, it is a great camera as you know! Great shot, Kris. Is it more or less as shot, or a crop?

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
