This was taken during the day on a cloudy day. I solarized it then de-saturated it. I added stars to it but didn't post that one.

Denise,
This is very appealing to me. The frosty look gives it a cold, wintry feel. I enjoy looking at bare trees against the sky, especially at twilight when they're reduced to graphical forms - the fractal patterns of the branches can keep my eyes engaged for a long time. The texture you've retained in the bark of the larger branches adds further interest. I like the composition, with the "L" of the larger vertical and horizontal branches framing the diagonal one.

I like the composition Lady Denise. well done...might want to run a slight pass of noise reduction for the background...good show...:cool:

Beautiful Denise !!! Feels like a 3D image and excellent precise framing !!! Makes you keep looking at the image !!!

[Julie Kenward]

Agree with the others - it's a beautiful image. Love the colors and the framing - what a neat idea.

Why do I get the idea you are having a grand time with these? Maybe because i think this is a grand image. While it is moody, it is also playful.
