The pink really stands out. I like the effect on the snow.

It's a dreadful pun (which is the best kind, of course), but a fun photograph.

Is that a Lensbaby picture? I like it and really think the B&W looks great. Just has some nice contrast.

Great fun, innit?

They are! Second picture I've come across that has a dual nature to it. If you were to crop the right side, this would be light and joyful, a path to explore. But that right side adds just a touch of fear. I still want to go forward, but perhaps a bit more carefully.

This is an excellent photo, Bear. I think it is a good example of the benefits of formula voting. For quite a while I voted by formula based on meets challenge, technical merit, composition and wow factor, and this would have probably gotten a 6 based on that. I eventually thought that was too scientific (objective) for an art (subjective) endeavor and have switched to more of an overall impression of the picture combined with meeting challenge and I would have probably given it a 4 (nice picture but DNMC) or if I thoughtfully considered the title maybe a 5 or even a 6 based on that.

What an incredible effect, the trees appear three dimensional. Almost makes me dizzy, but I love it
