Comment from Jo Calderbank
a wonderful crystal clear image of the beautiful mountains, great white balance control, the dear little horses stand out clearly
and they look so colourful in their coats, pin sharp focus and clarity, the viewer could almost breathe in the mountain air, nice saturated but natural colours, wonderful capture, congratulations on your win.

an outstanding journalistic document; everything is perfect: the subject and composition, the angle of capture and framing, the sharp focus and excellent control of exposure for the snow; and what most people forget: some interesting notes;

Looks like and sounds like you really enjoy those extreme looking conditions! Your fine and traditional composition provides us with a good look at the trying conditions you experienced out there. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well taken and good luck!

This is journalistic work of high quality. It shows the way of transportation of man and cargo at this region. The photo also has good depth. Exploring the photo, the viewer finds through defined detail. I appreciate that there are now blown out whites. The photo has good realistic colors. Apparently the horses are trained for their job. The saddles and blankets seem to have symbolic decor important to people of the region. The photo well composed, balanced and framed.

Love this photograph. I know it's cold but I wish I could be there. Love the contrast between the snow and the animals, person. Everybody loves a good action adventure picture.
