ANGEL OAK BLUR INVERTED

Great idea! I think the lines from the zoom blur have a lot to do with how well this works inverted.
I think I like this one even better Gary. To me the processing increases the mystical, magical quality of this impressive tree. I love the horizontal lines at the bottom, grounding the image, and the centered position of the tree. Very forceful image conveying the power of this leviathan.
I like them both equally - they're both wonderful, magical images.

This is just bursting forth with energy! It has a 3-D quality that appears to move and quiver if I look at it too long! Your perspective of this magnificent tree is just right, encompassing the branches and a layer of foreground and nothing more. The major branches have a wonderful balance on each side of the trunk , making a great natural composition that you highlight here so creatively.
