It certainly does not look like this now, however, it does make me believe that winter is not all bad.

Crisp and refreshing feel. Love those shadows. Maybe a nice B&W too.

The beautiful sidelighting compliments all those vertical and horizontal lines rather nicely, Brad. I could also see this working as a B&W as well.

Brad, This is really nice! I think your comp worked great and the shadows and highlights look perfect to me. The sparkles in the snow add a wonderful touch. This color version looks very nice and I can also see a b&w looking good as already mentioned.

Very fine scene. I really like the lines of the shadows intersecting the vertical tree trunks and, of course, the sparkling crystals. On the downside, the foreground is a bit out of focus and that does detract slightly in my view. Hopefully you can get out there again this winter and nail the scene.

The shadow play across the snow is beautiful, nicely broken by the trunks. Nice mix of lines!
