TREES TUESDAY WINNERS! (Nature Photo Contest)
In addition to the obvious criteria of composition, light, color, etc. I looked at each photo and asked, "Would I want to be there? Would I actually want to travel to the place where these trees are? Would I get excited if I was in that scene with my camera?"
Now I have a lot more places that I want to go and see, so thank you everybody! - Casey
I used an 8mm wide angle lens, pointing straight up, to create a distorted effect. The lens is so wide in fact, that if you look closely at the lefthand side of the photo, you can see the horizon bowing around.”
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE WINNERS!

*Note: I was tired and still working on many details about this contest yesterday and didn't notice that some of the entries lacked a description. I let it slide this time, but let's make sure all entries have a short description from now on. Thank you! :)

Thank you @weber8! I have decided it is better to separate the submissions post from the winners' announcement post (for now), so here is where you can submit the Water Wednesday entry! https://steemit.com/naturephotocontest/@shadalene/water-wednesday-photo-contest-is-open-share-your-photos-of-water-in-nature-in-any-shape-or-form.

These are so good! Didn't envy you, @caseygrimley, but I approve of your choices. Congratulations to the winners, and thanks to them and to @shadalene for making our day more tree-ish!
You're welcome! A tree-ish day is a good day! I just checked out some nature photography books from a local library, looking especially for trees photography. Never enough of it..
You'd think we'd get tired of them - for all the deforestation, there's still an awful lot of trees in the world!
No, never tired of trees. The most beautiful thing in the universe IMO.
To that I would just say: reserve your judgment until you look at a total solar eclipse through binoculars.
I might be persuaded because you're featuring Jim Carey. ;) Thankfully, though, when it comes to beauty in the universe, there is room for several superlatives. :) It just works like that.
Well, that's true! There's no rule saying we have to have one favourite of everything!
