Hi Guys, I captured this last week sometime but never posted it because there isn't that much interest in it. Would like to know what you think of it.

Cheers,
Owen.

I'm usually a sucker for silhouettes but this one doesn't do much for me in it's current presentation, perhaps a different crop could make it stronger (focusing on where the contrast between background and foreground is strongest), but overal I don't find this shot very appealing, sorry.

The colours are brilliant, but IMO the sillhouette is merely a distraction. Perhaps if the tree was closer, and you got a sillhouette of a single branch/leaf or something....

It's a bit hard to decide which is supposed to be the interest in this photo.

Thanks guys, I agree. The same thing went through my head when I was reviewing the shot initially. Thanks for taking a look and being honest :)

Cheers,
Owen.

Bummer Owen - just too much ....... like a mishmash of 2 shots....
looks like the sunset would have been a stunner.
