Beautiful snow on the trees Dick. Like your crop. There is a twig near the bottom right. I would probably take it out because it look like a wire or non nature thing? Without blowing things out you could play with a little in house edit with a little more Brilliance? Just an idea. Jerry Posted: 02/01/2025 15:28:03
You have very good eyes! It is a string I forgot was there for the summer and didn't notice when i worked on the image. Posted: 02/01/2025 19:47:33
Nice winter scene that conveys the cold - maybe not -10 though! I like the snow laying on the branches. it emphasizes the many shapes and sizes. I wonder if you thought about a black and white conversion. The contrast might suit this topic.
Stay warm!

This is a lovely winter scene. My only thought would be to remove what looks like ground brush on the lower left side which would draw more attention to the trees. Posted: 02/05/2025 06:44:51
Good point. Posted: 02/05/2025 18:29:08
A cold winter scene for sure. I agree with the comments already made. I think B&W would work well for this image. To me the snow looks a little dull. Wondering if a white point can be set in Snapseed or add more brilliance. Stay warm! Posted: 02/06/2025 00:27:47
You've captured the beauty of snow and how it can make scenes look magical something I try to remember as I head outdoors with shovel. Think we're both going to get more opportunities for snow photography over next 2 weeks. Posted: 02/06/2025 16:12:02
