Appreciated comments, Brian! When I came upon this spot I had the same feeling about that dead tree. Initially, it was about keeping it out of the center of the frame. After finding a way to shoot around it, I began to accept it as positive. Actually, more of a concern was the centering of the pond's far edge, but felt the benefit of including the full reflection was obvious.
