Hi,

Made on mine recent trip to Estrela NP, on the first big snowfall this year. It was a short but fulfilling trip.
CC are welcome

I usually don't like center arrangements like this, but this works well. The large version is particularly nice.

I tend to agree with Dan about the centered composition but this is very eye catching the way you have it composed. No doubt of the subject here. I like the way the background trees fade into the snow/fog.

Very nice title Paulo! Fits very well. The symmetry works very well here. However you might wanna look for other places to put your logo in your image... :wink:

Paulo,

I like the symmetry here as well as the somewhat darker, foggy mood. What I did think of though was an advertisement for a Christmas Tree farm. Good, bad or indifferent about Christmas, this little guy looks the one that nobody wanted.... :frown:

The centered comp works well, I think in part because of the fog.

Love the central composition Paulo and the natural framing with the two trees either side. The fog/mist adds a nice mood to this great photo.
