Too small for such a beautifull image.

The colors are great, and I like the silhouetted trees. One thing bothers me about it, though--there's a lot of varied detail in the image, but I can't find a pleasing pattern to unify the detail. Did you get a chance to isolate some of the details (perhaps a single silhouetted tree) with a longer focal length lens?

I would crop a bit off the left, that bit of branch above that cloud is distracting and doesn't add to the image.

Two points. First is that I don't think there's sufficient subject here in front of that sky. Second is that the shot looks unnatural. I assume that the area coming through as grey-brown on the screen was actually blue, and that if you'd kept the blue you'd have had a more interesting image. Looks like too many/too strong filters to me.
