Also posted in photo art Forum - up in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest North of Carson. I'm going to make a trip with my gear, this was taken with the family P&S Sony on a trip to a tubing hill up there :wink:

I colored the sky to add separation from the trees. Curious if this works for any of you.

Thanks for looking and/or commenting.

I'd go a little more gold. It sorta seems to have a slight green tint to it. Other than that, it's a cool set of snow covered trees. The comp isn't completely imaginative though.

I agree with Rick on the sky. I like the detail and repeating pattern of the trees. Finding a shot like this is something I have been wanting to get for a while...

I like it as is. Perhaps a good stock image?

The trees having the same shapes but being of different sizes is really appealing. The color of the sky makes for good seperation. Very cool shot!

Ditto with Erik Lundh. Nice.
