Hi there. This is my take on your logo.
Feedback and comments are welcome.

Thanks.

#43 like first impression, colors good
like lines but try a different shape for the box?? not sure how to say it
could we add a color??? golden brown, clay?

Thanks for the prompt feedback. Please take a look at #49, #50 & #51.

If you have any additional comments or requests please let me know.

Thanks.

entry #51 now ranked #4 in final 5 phase
Like all colors, try changing the golden brown tree to a hardwood shape
try INVESTMENTS & CO using same color and font

on a separate design do all of the above, take away semi-circle and place on a clay/brown horizon

thanks, hope to review tonight 9:00 eastern standard time, US

Thanks for the follow up. Please take a look at #90, #91, #92 & #93.
I realize that when requesting a horizon you might have been thinking about a round horizon line, however I can't have my design be too similar to other top designs, otherwise it would be considered as a rules violation, and I don't want to step on anyones toes. Instead, I decided on a more linear horizon, which in my opinion works a lot better than the round horizon line.

Let me know of any additional thoughts or requests you may have.

Thanks.

Thanks for your clarity. Agreed. Will examine over the next few hours.
