This is a clever way to present the tree, good work.

Thanks, Alan. I had some good mid-day light for this one.

Thanks, Ben. I thought it would be nice to tie the background into this. The area was really beautiful.

Nice close up of this tree. I like the colors you got and the blurred background for this.

Thanks, Jameel. I used a fairly long focal length and a wide aperture.

Thanks, Monica. I usually spend more time looking at the background than the subject in images like this. Here, I liked the red color of the sandstone that was quite a ways off in the distance.
