I like the shot (framing, subjects, etc.) but for me the sky, especially on the top/left side - just under the large branch), is a bit too much.

Great scene, but I'd lose the blue in the sky. It just looks wrong, given that the rest is monochrome.

it is actually infrared.. and using an all pass camera, the UG2a excludes all but a bit of the blue which you can see in the sky.

So I gather, from the comments under your other recent shot. Knowing how it came about doesn't make me dislike it any less. But it's your shot.
