Delighted to find this meadow full of frosted trees which was a rarity during my trip to the Lofotens.

This is my favorite kind of landscape image, with lots of interesting lines, beautiful pastel colors, and wonderful mood. Looks cold, looks kind of like a nice etching.

The frost gets a bit lost in the smaller version, but is a treat in the larger. Lovely background too.

I like how these trees are arranged throughout the frame across that beautifully colored sky. Nice job.

Beautiful sky and great soft colors. Minor, but I might clone out the bit of branch at the top going out of the frame (make it end in the frame). Very peaceful scene.

Beautiful sky and I like how you placed those birches. I do wish the uppermost branch would have ended inside the frame, but that is a really minor nit.

The frosting is only just beginning to be noticeable in the larger version so I would guess that this would need a much larger print to showcase that aspect of the image. Nevertheless, it still works well as winter trees against snow with a dynamic sky. I agree with the suggestions to clone out the single twig leaving the upper edge.
It does seem that winter is the most photographic time of the year in the Lofotens. No thank you ;-)

Kah Kit, the gentle colors in the sky blend wonderfully with the snowy landscape and the scattering of frosty trees. You've got a great sense of a gentle invitation to go exploring this snowy landscape.

Enchanting ! A lovely play of lace-like branches against the glow of the sky. Love the way the trees seem as if leaning towards the distant light.

I like the beautiful pastel colors in this image lending it a quiet beauty. I'm not quite sure about the leaning trees - I'm not sure if they are leaning due to the weight of the ice or if it is because of perspective distortion. Otherwise this is very nice.

Great job on this image, Kah Kit. The combo of warm and cool colors in the sky is gorgeous and the large version showcases some wonderful details in the trees. My only suggestion would be to clone out that one limb which exits the frame at the top.

This is stunning. The frosted trees contrast beautifully against the pastel sky. The comp works well with elements arranged nicely in the frame. The only suggestion would be to clone the tip of the one twig up top that is merging with the border.
