Hi LeeAnn, this is gorgeous! I love the round shape of this tree and it's placement within the frame off to the right. I love that it s just one tree , it really draws the eye and invites the viewer to study the shape and structure.The field with golden grasses and wildflowers is beautiful too!
The sky shows that a storm is coming, it makes the perfect background for the tree and field, the blue / grey really compliments the golden tones.
You have photographed it so well with good focus, this image is clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear natural.
Well composed and presented! Very best wishes to you in this contest!

Fine photography that indeed captures a storm coming in. The clouds are still nice and visible. The lone tree seems ok with the storm; it is pretty as is the field with grasses and a few flowers.

It is the dramatic looking sky doing this photo more than anything, but also the tree and the field of flowers in the foreground looks great. Before a rainstorm it is also a very special light, which is very visible in this photo.

The photo is of course also sharp and it is clear and well defined details to be seen in every part of the tree. The exposure is spot on.

The format and framing is perfect, and with the tree off to the right, it is a fine balance in the composition. I think this is a truly lovely and well taken photo Lee Ann, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

Such a simple but interesting photo of this lonely tree with the stormy clouds coming in.

The tree kind of pops out from darkness. It almost looks like the tree is ready to fight the storm.

The presentation of this photo is very well done.

This photo is intriguing. The cloudy sky emphasizes the wildflowers and oats at the hill perfectly. I almost feel the breeze on my skin. Your photo is excellent focused and exposed and has good depth. I enjoy the realism of light and color and the refinement of detail. The tree has a good placement within the frame. The composition is balanced.

This a very simple but outstanding photo. The difference between someone with a camera and someone that knows what to do with it when the occasion arises is a great photographer. The DOF created by the tree almost jumps off the scene. The approaching clouds also add to the DOF and 3D effect. This is a shot that should end up printed on metal.

This is good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine and classical composition offers us a good view of the stormy clouds approaching you. Hope it was not too bad? Nicely done!
