Landscape Photo Competition 2013 No 5 : Entry Number 115

Judges Comment

The white tree is amazing and makes a great anchor point within this lovely landscape. You have placed it very bravely at the edge of your composition where it really sets off the lake. But the foreground is sadly cut too high. Those bushes towards the right are nice and would have added to the composition, as would a few more tufts of grass to the left. The ground detail is much more interesting than all of that empty blue sky, try a lower angle and compose with more attention to the foreground shapes. The view is great but what is in front of your feet sets the atmosphere and brings detail and interest.
