As soon as I saw the thumb in my deviations inbox my jaw hit the floor, seriously some incredible work here. The shot has a really mystical feel about it from the IR filter and the strong wind rushing through the grass and leafs. The composition is perfect with the way the tree bends and curls around inside the frame. Perfect contrast really brings the tree out, making it almost 3D from the rest of the scene. The movement captured in the clouds really push the tree forward into the viewers focal range, therefore making it the ideal focal point for this scene. I wouldn't change a thing about this image, PERFECT!!

So I'm curious because I really want to try this, what lens/focal length do you use for these tree portraits, and do you a use full-frame or cropped-sensor camera?

Awesome picture. I love the silk effect achieved here w/ the ir filter and longer exposure. What camera and lens did you use for this?

Nice photo
Only thing what I didnt like is that "too much HDR" looks like it aint natural and over burned in some points.

Shadows and highlights are controlled damn well for what looked to be a hard scene to balance!
Very well done

Wow, the little thumbnail at the message center didn't seem this stunning. Wow.
The details and contrasts look wonderful, and even the less defined parts on the leafs (I'm guessing because of the wind) look like they fit and were meant to be exactly like they are. Really wonderful angle and composition too. The photo looks really well balanced, despite the tree trunk being exactly in the center.
Really enjoyed this one.

just lovely from the movement, to the contrast between light and dark, def the right choice in making it b&w.
