This is a shot I initially left alone, but on a later browse through the photos decided to elevate it. I like these simple arrangements. There's a certain elegance to the subtle gesture of the tree on the right, and the balancing trees on the other side. The clouds add a final background layer and keep the scene from being perfectly flat.
