IMO I think that the tree and the bush is a bit distracting, good pic though I like the house.

Wow, you really captured the concept of "IT'S FRIGGIN' COLD!" The snow, the isolation of the tent, the blown-out sky ... they all work together to deliver that message.

I love the processing on this one. It has a really nice mood to the photo. Technically it is well done. The composition is a little one dimensional though, what I mean is everything is more or less on the same plane. Maybe getting close to those reeds on the right and using a wider angle to keep the same perspective? Dunno, I really like the photo though (especially that barn). Should have scored much higher at any rate. I don't know how people can vote 2's in a Free Study, it's not like a DNMC...

Wonderful low key shot. You managed to retain tons of detail. I really like the lighting technique involved here. Not sure why it didn't do better, maybe still life isn't in right now on DPC? Good capture.

This is a strange one. Stuff like this is always hard. I love the idea though, just when it comes to photography it is a bit strange. I think it just needs some context. Technically it is terrific.

It's funny, Bob, but often when I see your photos I think of them as being part of a diptych and/or triptych. This one feels like it belongs with the solitary tree photo. I think the pair would complement each other beautifully. I really like the stark processing. You are definitely one of my favorite photogs on this site.

I like this shot Bob. Has a really old fashioned feel to it.
