Description
Firstly I want to thank you for your warm welcome back, and the generous comments on my last posting.
If you love rule of thirds you're gonna hate this one :D
This shot was made a couple of hours later and not far away. The black cloud has gone and it is now a fine summers day at the Sycamore tree. Full size view available by clicking on the image. I'll let you work out the title ;)
Many thanks for viewing and your comments are as ever appreciated.
Richard.

this one realy looks good, but im not sure with the frame...

Do you realize how much the cloud complemets the image? Try looking at the shot with just a plain blue sky and the image is not as dramatic. I think it is a credit to you that you timed this shot well.
Onslow
Thanks folks: Chaos the frame is just to get a black background for here I doubt I will mat the print with black. Geefal - yes I took the shot with various shapes of cloud in the background ;)

Great composition : wonderful lonesome tree !

Ah yes, the tree from the early part of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves film just after Robin and Azim have landed on the English shores, but I believe that this tree is actually in Scotland, on, or near Hadrian's Wall. Excellent shot! I often use square cropping too - welcome to the non-conformists club! lol.

One of those times to throw away the rule book the shot would not look as good any other way

Very nice work!

Great capture! Wonderful! 2/3 what? Agree with chaosfrag though - the frame is a bit suffocating. Maybe it would work better in white? Anyway - it's a very good image! Bravo!

A very interesting and unusual landscape, If it were covered in snow it might resemble a half-pipe for snowboarding! Cool capture and a tribute to your artistic eye for seeing it.

Excellent composition:)

First off I don't pay much attention to rules if we did there wouldn't be photos like this one. I love the natural stone encasement around the base. Looks like a wonderful place to set and enjoy a beautiful, peaceful place. Wonderful shot with a unusual perspective.

Rule of thirds be damned, this is a great capture. Amazing landscape. Really quite unlike anything I've seen before.

Hopefully & happily !! first, even if I understood you referred to Robin Hood, rockstrider gave me the solution, because I forgot the early part of the story overgame :( scdly, you and others comments here, give me (the old apprentice) "breathe back" as severals agree man can throw away the rules book, sometime ! thirdly, I'm ok with you about the dark frame enhanced the depth shot, only I would choose smaller sides, but it's not my work !!! lol It's a great pic, Richard. I love this majestic age-old tree in this wonderful landscape & sky q:) Magali

Love the compo, Richard. One of those times when a centered image looks just right. LOL at the rule of thirds. Rules were made to be broken, ya know, lol. Anyway, welcome back, once again. This is great.
