Yikes, scary scene. I think the processing lends alot to the mood of this image. My only suggestion might be to do a slight crop of the bottom for the fencing down there, but it is such a minor thing. Well done.

This is beautiful, Peter. It doesn't say "Christmas" to me, but I love the colors and mood of the shot. My first impression was of oriental art, with that color cast, the black ink-like tree branches, the vertical feel of the hill, and the foggy/smoky Nirvana effect. Once again I love your processing.

An eerie and foreboding feel. Not at all cheeful and festive; I like that.

The tiled roof shelters a home hidden at the bottom of a foggy hill in a city. Is the color from streetlights/moonlight or is there some post-processing at work here too?

Very different PP on this shot, not to my taste but creative and adds an ominous tone to the shot.

Wow, very odd! I like it! Curious as to how you got those effects around the trees.

This has more of a Halloween theme then Christmas.

This is really neat. I love the spooky feel to it. Nice job on the processing too.

Interesting shot but I cant quite work it out. The foggy bit on the right is confusing and annoying me as it's kind of a blob not doing anything. The top half looks like a city on fire.

i like the picture but the color really makes it look like a 70's horror flick. B/W would have been more catching in my opinion.
