Taken one winter morning at Schermerhoorn, The Netherlands. I used an F100 with 20-40 lens @ f19, Velvia and a polarizer on a Gitzo.

A great image Marsel. For me the combination of snow, grass, a nice sky, the windmill, and your perspective in composing the image all bring this together really well. I really like it.

Only one question: Was it really that blue? Very nice photo, even if I don't quite believe it. Perhaps it's my monitor.

Very strong image!!! Nice lighting, great warm/cool color contrast, nice composition, I really like the foreground and camera angle.

Greg - the blue is a bit too blue and there is too much red in the reed compared to the slide. I will fix that. Thanks for your comments. :smile:
