Really good job
Not much going on this photo
Find more detail
Detail is very important
But really nice job
Try to center more, centering alows the viewer to instantly find the most important detail

    Thank you jared! I try to shoot in 3rds, I find 'center' very boring--

Very nice. It is hard to get a sense of DOF in this photo though. The bright blue is a great contrast to the white snow on the trees. Nicely done.

    Thank you very much david!!! Yea, I was gonna go out yesterday AM and take from the property across the way to capture a good DOF of a similar shot but was 9 below zero and had been snow throwing the drive to get hubby out and just decided I didn't want to go back out! However, no doubt, will snow again soon!

Wonderful-- crisp, blue. The viewer can almost smell clean, mountain air. The artist has taken a mundane subject and captured something extraordinary. A joy to view.

    Thank you very much Mile! Yep, was gonna give it up for a while, but hubby encouraged me to stay with it. Very cold, 9 below, I just put on my feather stuffed gear and git out there and move the snow so hubby can escape for work, then took a few pics.

Beautiful photograph. I love the wonderful snow all over the trees and how the one in the middle just about missed it all. Beautiful blue sky. Wonderful job!

This is a very pretty image. I really like the framing of it. The snow looks pretty good as well. Just beautiful. Great job!

Ahh! I love the snow, although we hardly get a taste of it here in TX. And the crystal clear blue sky(too many of those here- for a cloud lover like me, lol) make for a very nice capture. Great work Lowrider, orion008.

Comment from Blueberrydesk


Wow, some of the snow seems so bright you could amost go snowblind looking at it! Beautiful capture of nature's colors. There is a little too much contrast for me, and some of the clumps on the trees look a little overexposed, but it may just be the upload. Nice shot!
