Default Banana Tree At Dusk

Taken at dusk with no flash, but with new VR lens. Doesn't look to good zoomed in. What about at this distance?

For me, the tree is getting lost in the green background. It certainly has an interesting shape but it isn't well defined here. Is there an angle you could shoot from that would make it stand out against an open background?

Even though it's kind of dense with growth on the other side, I might could try it. There would be headstones and sky behind it from that angle. Thanks for the suggestion.
