Lovely Bob, I particularly like the avenues at the bottom of #2 & 3.  Leads the eye to explore the depth of the image yet one can look up at the tops of the trees behind.  Adds great depth in my opinion.

I have great trouble with situations like this but I can see your technique solving several 'tall tree' problems I have had in confined spaces.  Not sure my 16mm f2.8 is wide enough... Hmmm!

Bob:

I like all three, but esp. #2, because of the path mentioned by Seapy.

Cheers

Randy

The first one looks the most dynamic to me, thanks to the trunks of varying sizes.

Nice!  #1 is my favorite.

I feel the tree blocks me out, the avenues invite the eye to explore, mine anyway!   ;)

Perhaps I look at too many trees...   ::)

Needless to say, it is a matter of personal taste.   :)

How's your panohead project, by the way?
