Nice one John - as ever :wavey:

I might be tempted to do something about the prominent OoF heather at the bottom frame edge.

I'll agree with Andy about the OOF splodge at the bottom, but that aside, this is a cracking image, nicely processed with lillywhite snow too, excellent!

Nice feel to this.It looks like the snow at the bottom is flowing thru,like a slow motion river.
