the tight crop had to do with a distracting building where the light source was coming from...not sure about the exosure too, and yeah...just not sure. would appreciate some critiques

spooky tree... long exposure
lots i dont like about this pic, some things i do like...

On my monitor your exposure is bang on. The framing is good too, not at all too tight. The tones on it are perfect, and I even like the sort of sickly yellow light that it's getting. The top of the frame could probably be cropped a touch, but even that I don't mind too much.
Starting to get more daylight I'm finding so maybe I won't have quite so many night shots, although i've got a brand new one I'm sort of liking...
Really like the mood of this shot, and I agree with Dooda on my LCD the exposure looks dead on. The tree does appear very sickly in the yellow light, but it adds to the affect.
it is spooky, but the crop is a bit dooky
the leaves look like the most interesting part but the tree shape is not very nice either get further away from it so you get the whole tree in with ample room around it to make it look isolated and even more spooky or revisit and shoot the leafy parts of it The colour tone and mood are excellent
agree that the tight crop doesnt do this justice.
it needs more room to breath. I would clone the offending building out. Steve check out my image gallery @

The tree is great (it has a spooky, mystical look) and I don't mind the cropping at all. However, I don't like the bright green grass at the foot of the tree - I find it distracting - but I don't know what you could do about it.

maybe if was windy and gave that blurred effect it could make it more striking
