The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
I’d been taking photos of this patch of desert from eye level. I decided to get the tripod as close to the ground and as close to the dead tree as I could. It certainly gave the subjects an entirely different look.
Specific Feedback
All reactions are welcome.
Technical Details
ISO 100, 35mm, f/18, 1.3 sec.

Don, it’s just a very special beauty .Fine colors and composition . Nothing to complain about . Your image makes me feel good !
Your comment made my day, Ben. 
Really nice image. Colors, textures. all excellent. Nice intimate scene. Since this is a critique forum, I feel it is my duty to critique something. 
Just kidding. A small nit. Just a little separation between the overhanging branch and the rock would be nice.
Thanks for the comment and the critique, Michael.
I agree. I had the same thought when I was composing this one. Moving the camera enough to make that happen wasn’t feasible.

I like the degree of confusion in this image. The background introduces some chaos but not enough to break things down. It’s a subtle tension between tree texture and bg texture. But I like that. A completely simple background might not be as visually intriguing.
