Magical comes to mind. Love the light reflected in the snow and the detail. You did a great job on the processing. Truly serene.

I really like the mix of warm and cool tones here Bill. Fantastic light in the sky with a gorgeous reflection of it off the snow.

Excellent! Certainly among the best I've seen from you.

Looks like a nice place. I can't really tell where it is, even though I think I do recognize those two peaks at the horizon.

Serious beauty throughout, Bill. Very appealing composition with the fg tree trio, and love the look of the Alps behind. The warm, glowing light is amazing. Excellent processing.

Excellent, beautiful image, Bill. The warmth of the sky is more than offset by the feeling of cold in the rest of the image. Low all the snow on the trees and what seems like an umarked landscape of pristine snow. Nicely composed and captured.

What a beautiful, tranquil scene. Wonderful warm colors contrasting with the snow! Might want to clone out that disturbed snow in the extreme LLC. Beautiful shot!

Beautiful light you found here, and the fresh snow on everything are the conditions we dream about. Hard to improve upon this. The only suggestions I might have is that theright highest peak looks a little darker thatn the others, maybe from the blend but maybe it was in more shade. Also, the shadow in the left LC breaks up the smooth FG a little for me. What a view.
