You seem to do very good at getting snow shots with the Sony. The 70-300 is doing an excellent job of dealing with the high contrast between the snow and the subjects on it. Do you use a polarizer?
I lived in Mi for a few months of one winter, but never tried this. I would likely get frost bitten toes and fingers. To me, it looks like more of a social thing with maybe a bit of antifreeze involved. : )

It is great for the composition of this image that the sun strikes the snow only thru the one gap in the pair of trees.

From here in South Florida, this looks like a beautiful place. This image does justice to a magnificent landscape. The B& W works very nicely with the stark contrasts of snow and trees.

This is a cool looking place, for a photo anyway. They did a good job decorating the place to look like Mexico, except that most of the buildings in Mexico have rebar iron rods sticking out of the top of the walls as if they are unfinished. They get some kind of tax break if the place isn't finished, so it is a loophole thing.
That said, I like the way you captured the feel of the place, and the way the cloud wraps over the top to accent the good composition and colors. I am happy that you included both the building and the sign, as they also amplify each other in the image.

With the B&W, this looks like a "set the scene" shot for a 50's detective or mystery movie. I see that you work near one of the primary streets thru town by the 100 street number. Excellent shot to show us one of your own views of where you live.

Cool graphic image! It would be USA, but the S is backward.
A mirror flip would make the logo read right, and I would think that few people would notice the lettering on the building being backward.
This is a powerful shot. I wonder if the architect envisioned this relationship when they were designing the place?

The wave makes a nice diagonal thru the image. I can almost visualize it moving.

I like the composition of this shot a lot, with the curve in the water. If it is supposed to be a natural conservation area, then maybe they don't want it to look like a golf course? I would guess that the weeds may be exotic species. We get a lot of that sort of thing here in Florida. In that case, they do need to be removed to allow the native plants to do their thing.
Good move to use your camera to help the local environment. : )

I would be in trouble for sure if I lived close to that camera store. Very nice shot of mid city life, and of the EL.

This is good history. I would bet that it is still 100% functional too if necessary. Nice light in this shot.
