Yeah man this is nice. Really liking how the textures look on the tree. Part of me wants a square crop of just the tree, I'm not sure of the large amount of empty space on the left is doing anything for it and keeps pulling my eye away. I think it's because the tree is reaching to the right. Either way, this would probably make one hell of a print. Nice job Greg.

Jordan, I've thought about cropping this image and keep, as you suggested, only the tree. I hated how it looked
The flow of branches makes cropped version "handicapped" because it seems something is missing from the picture, something that makes the branches lean (or bent) to the right. To me there's this expectation to see some flow (of and invisible wind perhaps) that makes this tree look the way it does. But I can tell we are on the same boat with our thoughts about what this image may look like in the end. This is what this forum is for, right? Before I print something like this I sure want to know what people think about the negative space. It occasionally helps and looks great, but sometimes it maybe just too much of it. Hm... maybe I'll remove some of it from this shot? I'll play around with this image some more.
Thanks
