Zenabi,

This shot has some potential IMO. The sky is exquisite though I think I'd crop the shot to get rid of the twigs on the left hand side. The bridge is somewhat an annoyance, but since it's so far in the BG i still think this works.

Well done.

very nice color and wide view. I agree about the cropping of the left side to rid the image of the twigs. other then that, awesome work.

In My Opinion.

Welcome to the Forum Zenabi. Overall I find your pic to be pleasing, but I think it could be much better. I don't mind the twigs on the left side of the image at all. For me, they anchor the photo on that side, as there isn't much else going on there to hold my interest. Not that the twigs hold my interest, but at least there is somthing there instead of nothing. The main thing that I don't like is the tree being dead center in the pic. By cropping the left side of the image like Jared and Kevin suggested, would move the tree out of the center and make for a more pleasing composition IMO.

Give this scene another try if you can, but go either in the moring, or evening. The sun being low in the sky will add some warmth to the image, as well as some shadows.
