Very well executed with great sense of scale, even though I'm not a huge fan of tree 'scapes.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi

Welcome to the forum. There is "one" word I would like to say about your scape "WOW".

Regards
Paul.

recently, I may have been a bit 'downbeat' about scapes like this, but this particular scape' seems to make me go back on my view a little.

This is incredible!

The tree looks so damn real!

Really good, that moss is perfect and it looks so much larger than it is.
