Dead Tree
Here is a pic that the people at work seem to like (unless they are being kind.)

Hi Meicw,
It is a good image but I think maybe it was shot at the wrong time of day (you can't always avoid this though). You have framed it well and the little bit of cloud breaks up the sky a bit... I just can't help wondering what it would have looked like later (or earlier) in the day. Cheers, W00DY Andrew
Nikon D3 and lot's of Nikon stuff!!
Hi meicw
I tend to agree that it may have looked better if shot in a different part of the day - however the tree has such great character, I still think this is a very good pic. Did you do any PP on it ??
Great subject but as the others said, it's lacking a bit of interesting lighting. I reckon it would look good as a series of shots showing morning, afternoon and evening. This would be a good subject to try out other landscape techniques too. I'd love to see more.
 Steve.

G'day Mic,
As others have suggested try either early morning or late in the day to get some nice long shadows... Terrific shot though, great subject and good framing, I really like old scraggly trees with their dead branches reaching out in vain... Interesting foreground too... I like it Aka Andrew
When all else fails, photoshop it
Not sure if it's because of the sky but as I look towards the top of the tree, it starts to become unfocussed
OK, here is one of the same tree that I took this morning at 0845. My preference is for the first one. I will see if I can take another one about 5-ish this afternoon, if the change with rain hasn't come through.
Here is also another pic of a footbridge on the path going to Latrobe Uni. BTW the only PP done is tweaking of the levels and the removal of a power pole in the bridge pic. Taken with the Tamron 28-300 Di. Regards Meicw 
Meicw- I'll leave the detailed analysis to someone else. I'll just say that I like it much better already! The tree is more dramatic and interesting than the first posting. The water fowl help the image too.
Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.
