Very good, strong composition. I think it would have been even better without the living tree behind, but not much you could do about this!

Very nice composition - I like the strong foreground and the empty hills behind.

I first saw this as a new tree/shoot growing from the old/dead tree... and so a brilliant juxtaposition. So a (typically bwlchmawr) fascinating shot, although the horizon cuts through the interest a bit !

Very interesting tree, rather more saturation then am I used to in your images but I like it.

I was walking there last weekend. The scenery is breath-taking and the detail, like the moss on your tree, is so rich. Thanks for this.
I must go back on my own without the walking gang, one day!

Best wishes,
