I love the noise in this image. I might like the photo even more without the white bird. Still, high marks from me.

hey jeff
thanks for the comments! im glad you love the grain, i do to! its really an underappreciated tool in photography. it is grain though, i havent made the leap to digital, so all my shots are from film. no photoshop noise added.
thanks again.

This is very impressive.

The Pictorialists would be proud.

Excellent for the theme, gorgeous shot.

I love this as a thumbnail, and while I have rated it I am still unsure if I really like the technique used.

I dig this picture. I like the little bird at the bottom of the tree and the technique used to process this picture is great. I bet it looks fantastic if it was seen in a bigger format.

Aces from me. The mood is fantastic

This is very beautiful. Thank you for sharing this image. I will give this all 5s, assuming certain things about technique.

I believe this suffers greatly by being displayed as a tiny JPG on a computer monitor. I assume this is infinitely more interesting as a print.

It reminds me of Steichen's work.

Absolutely beautiful. The detail of the bird is what creates the zen-like feel for me - it adds a focus.
