@pLusOne: Thanks!
The sky is so dramatic. It just dominates the image appearing to almost devour the land and lonely tree. I like he angle this was taken from.

@Saeed: Thanks
The sky so blue The winds that blew The tree that stood all alone
The clouds they swept The grass they stepped The golden rays which shone
its a line from a long lost poem. It was written in the early 80's by a soldier-poet, who perished on the borders.

@Kleos: Thanks for the poem Kleos, I like it =D) Out of interest, which borders did your poet perish on?
What a beautiful sky. I miss the summer and shiny days too.

@Graham Russon: Thanks Graham, its that good old rule of thirds I guess.
Whenever I see blue skies, puffy clouds and green rolling hills, that old Windows desktop image comes firmly to mind . . Bill Gates has me conditioned !

@Ronnie 2¢: Oh dear! That wasn't what I was going for. Damn Bill Gates! Change your desktop background! lol
A beautiful pine, it adds a big exotic touch to the whole scene.
