    Sean I like this,

    great movment in the clouds to draw the eye to the tree!

    its a simple shot but really works well because of that movement.

    It might be my monitor but I would bring up the contrast a tad.

    really nice shot

    A bit like the last comment I made on one of your shots,
    I think this might be a bit too tall-
    and maybe even a bit too far away altogether-

    It makes too much of the sky, which I think might be a distraction from the textures in the stonework, and the tree-
    There might also be a bit too much foreground, for me-

    I’m wondering too if there might be something to be had closer up, and if you might have taken it?
    I’m guessing you were using one of your filters for that wooly sky effect?

    I suppose I’d question its use-
    all that motion in the background is taking away from the subject-
    assuming of course that the subject is the tree (and stonework) and not a moving sky…

    Obviously, only my opinion…
    but it looks like there’s a lot to work with without having to rely on effects-

    I do like the movement in the sky but agree with Joseph that it take away a little from the ruin
    Did you process the one with the old gas burner thing in the foreground?

    I like the bit of space above it – almost like flames emanating from the tree. Nothing like an oul lonely tree for a B&W photograph though.

    A slight crop would sort this shot out – but a great choice of exposure time and lovely processing. Well done.

    Lovely Sean. Worth trying a square crop perhaps, less foreground and a bit less top but still enough
    to show the movement in the sky. Good conversion

    Excellent exposure and dramatic effect in the clouds.

    Agree with Mark – square crop for me , sur!!
