Photographer's Note
Driving around the base of Uluru at sunset, I happened to find this lone gum tree silhouetted against the horizon...
Uluru is an awe inspiring location, but once the sun sets the massive rock becomes a vast featureless wall on the skyline. Not so the gum trees that surround it - they remain a source of infinite detail until the last light fades...
Almost everyone who's visited Australia has a shot or two of Uluru, so it becomes a challenge to find anything new at one of the most photographed places on the planet. This is my attempt, I hope you like it!

Very pretty color, taken really well in photograph, perfect framing and the spectacular sky.

Really really nice sky. Beautiful shades of purples, blues and pinks and the dark silhouette of the tress is framed so nicely. Great shot.

I love trees. So, maybe I am biased. But this is a darn good tree silhouette. The colors are nice, not sure if you saturated them a bit extra, but they look great and could be natural. Composition spot on. Nothing to complain about at all.

Wow, absolutely stunning! The incredible hues from orange to blue are made more powerful by the interesting cloud formations. In addition, the overall composition is really pleasing with the tree closeup while the other trees are off in the distance.

Those colors are simply amazing, I've never seen such a transition between the orange and purplish layers. Did you use a gradient neutral grey (or colored) filter or something?
very nice tree silhouette too, I like the way it's detached and dominating the lower tree line.

Wonderful shot, I agree with all the other praise you've received for this photo, it's striking (but somehow subtle).
