Description
Near Horb am Main, Upper Franconia, Germany.

Tokina AT-X 12-28mm f/4 PRO DX wide angle lens with Hoya CIR-PL circular polarizer.

Yes, the tree is centered, defying the rules of composition. Why? Because the light came exactly from the left while I mounted the camera and lasted only a few seconds before the sun was covered by clouds and did not come out again. I have better compositions emphasizing the sky but this picture has the best light.
Additionally, placing an element centered emphasizes stillness, stagnation and calm.
The wide angle lens draws the clouds towards the center like pointing fingers. A nice effect.

I forgot to put my camera on summer time. So the time given in the camera data is plus one hour.
