Hi Joggie! Excellent angle; fabulous gradient blue sky ... love how the tree reaches out for the dark space :) Also very pleasing how the colour of the tree top matches with the ground. Congrats on the BIP, so well deserved!

It goes straight to the Paradise this beautiful plant that has for me a special charme as I don't see it in my Country. The beautiful colours and textures are not a merit exclusive of the polarizer filter. Beautiful for me the essential composition, Joggie.
Take care.

Joggie:)
I never saw the tree of the quiver.
He is really impressive and monumental.
You chose the splendid perspective.
The colours of your painting add him grandeurs.
I greet You warmly:)
