Great title! Fantastic image, John. Love the way snow brings out the best in every color here. Your comp has the elements placed just about perfectly.

Wow, is this nice, John. Just beautiful.

Sweet! I love these images that have loads of detail along with a frame work of shapes and lines.

I hope your sentiment catches on no matter the out come.

A beautiful scene with snow topping off the colors.
Nice feeling to this capture. Well done

Very nice, John. Comp and colors here hold me tight.

This is wonderfully beautiful, John. What a wonderful composition with a great mixture of color and elements that come together to form a cohesive blend. I also like the dusting of snow. Excellent work!!

The colors grabbed me...
the comp interests me,
and the scene is a beaut!
Well done!

Lovely combination of two seasons, John.

I really like the composition and color in this image. Very pretty fall image.

Gorgeous frosted fall portrait John!

Absolutely Beautiful! The frosting of snow is so delicious.

Well, this certainly takes my mind off all the political turmoil. It's stunning with the vibrant foliage and dusting of snow. An image to gladden hearts, indeed.

John, you are a master at composition! The colors and everything about this image is beautiful.

This is stunning, John! I love the colors, but what's even better is the touch of snow.

John, your image has great impact on me. All the diverse elements fit together wonderfully and make fo a perfect harmony to my eye. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful! Great colors and comp. Great stuff.

With that one, I think you have your Xmas card covered. It would make a gorgeous cover image.

Sweet! Very well composed, with beautiful colors.

I want to visit Narnia! Beautiful! Perfect in every way.

I love this, John! What a great mix of elements and wonderful colors. This really shows that fall is on the edge of winter!

A+

John,

This is outrageously gorgeous! Of course bordering on the "nah, this didn't really exist did it?" ;-) I mean, it's almost too perfectly arranged... Not complaining, this is amazing - simply beautiful.

If it were mine, I might back off the Lights just a tad (1/2 stop?) and play around with the warm color balance. But those are personal choices anyway.

I love this John.

Simply beautiful imagery here.

Thank you for sharing love the comp and the feel of softness in color.

Great comp, subject and light, John.

This is excellent John. The arrangement of trees in your comp is perfect and I really like the light dusting of snow.

Oh, man! Oh, man! Was this from our PNWNP trip? G-o-r-g-e-o-u-s!!

Right out of a fairytale! You could not find things arranged better. Conditions are perfect. Maybe just a tad on the warm side, but maybe not.

Thanks everyone, for your more than kind comments. I'll play with darkening and cooling it a bit.

Catherine, yes. This was from the edge of the field at the opposite end of the Trout Lake meadow we were shooting Adams from. This was from the morning after you parted ways with Don and I at this location. I took a ton of photos, not my usual style, and wasn't happy with most of them. It's surprisingly hard sometimes to catch a comp even when surrounded by crazy color and patterns. Fortunately, this one really clicked with me when I got back.
