Lovely sky & the tree makes a good framing device.
A little more detail in the tree would be nice given that the tree is quite busy so it's not a simple silhouette. However that might be a challenge given this is pretty much contre-jour.

Thanks, Guys.
The best pictures are often taken in the most difficult light. I had to expose for the sky here let the rest take care of itself: there was very little shadow detail revoverable.

Andrew

Thanks Cliff,
This really was a "look over your shoulder and got to shoot it" moment. The path was at a lower level so the shot was made!

Hi Ron, James, John and Cedric,
Thank you all very much for looking at my photograph and for taking the trouble to post your kind comments.
I do care about my photography: it's important to me and the opinions of my peers matters most of all.
Best regards,
Andrew
