Hoar Frost + repost

Gallery: LandscapePosted November 20, 2011227 views9 comments

I'm a little tentative about this one. I really like the muted colors and the frost-furred bushes against the sandstone. It was just starting to snow when I set up for this one and I'm afraid the streaky flakes are a detriment. Suggestions/comments would be much appreciated. Thanks for looking

Really like it, Nancy, just w/o the piece of sky at the top. The textures and contrast and color works very well here.

I agree with Tom's comments. I like the comp. and colors. The whites are handled very well. I also agree that maybe crop the little bit of sky off the top. Fine image.

I agree with the previously made comments by Richard and Tony.
The image has good color and detail with nice textures. All in all,
well done, Nancy Lea.

Excellent mix of snow and warm rock colors.

Nice mix of textures the frost is perfect with the sandstone. I'm on board with the crop suggestions as well.

Chop & crop looks much better Nancy. Great color contrast here. As Stan said, can't beat hoar frost!
