Welcome, Tim. Great first post. Both the composition and processing look good. I like the feeling of depth you created by including the smaller tree in the background.

Welcome to Naturescapes, Tim.

While a central subject does not always work so well, in this instance it does - especially with the second tree in the background which adds a nice balancing element, as well as depth to the composition. It is not easy at this size to give useful critique on the detail but what we can see looks like a very nice first image! Looking forward to more.

Carol.
