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.

Regards, Ian.

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.

Regards,

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!

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,
