Thanks so much for all the wonderful entries I had seven I could have chosen for 1st place and another bunch for HMs, so I eliminated the HMs and struggled with the seven - love them all !!
The HMs in no particular order (probably alphabetical)
alain lestrade. Such beautiful patterns created by this superb tree - the light works so well in B&W
allagil. the colours are so lovely here emphasized by the snow making a beautiful shot.
jcdefreitas: The infrared treatment really makes for a stunning shot.

3rd place to kzaret. What truly amazing trees. I love how the lit up area is framed by green leaves.
2nd place to mclew. What a stunning shot - and what more can I say !!
1st Place to Stevemaz. I love the moodiness here with what looks like the wind whistling through the trees. Beautiful.
So, it's on to you stevemaz.
