Tree B&W, looking for comments

Chaotic Tree, B&W · 06:14 PM

Here is a tree I came across while hiking just outside of Sedona. I thought it might work well in B&W. Any comments or suggestions you might have would be appreciated.

Very cool subject for a B&W photo!

The only suggestion I can add is next time try to get a little more of the tree in the photo. This looks like a great old tree... it deserves the grandeur of showing it's whole self!

I think BW fits nicely with "naked" old trees and theres a lot going on with so many branches. I think its a good shot, sure there are lots of different ways to frame it, if you have the time when u do the shot it can be good to do some different angles to see how it works out, its quick to delete the ones you dont want anyways.
