This eery scene is gripping. It looks like a scene right out of Dracula's Transylvanian forest all foggy and decrepit. Great find! Your composition, clarity and lighting are spot on and you made the perfect choice going with black & white. Very powerful image.

Fantastic shot, perfect for Black and white. It is amazing how the tree exfoliates itself. Focusing in on the bark enables seeing its condition. Congratulations for second place. Ray

This looks straight out of a horror movie! The atmospheric effect is good. The photo has a good balance of negative space and foreground/background interest. Very well balanced. Good luck!

This really is a gnarly tree, I wonder what it is, it's lovely and very unusual.
The photo's great too, I love that the background is misty, it makes the whole image a little spooky!
Excellent focus, with a good depth of field that shows what's in the background without taking away from the tree itself.
Very best of luck in the contest.

What a lovely old tree, lovely in its own right. You did a super job in enhancing its beauty with your capture. This is fine black and white, gray scale, photography with the greenish-gray tint, soft black and white, in the foliage. Best wishes in the contest.

Definitely a great shot to convert to black and white. The gnarly old tree is pretty cool. I love the random trees in a desert landscape. I lived in NM for years and always loved seeing a tree now and then. This one is especially cool!
You have a great entry. Good luck!
