Nice composition, but the image looks a bit underexposed...

good, but a little flat and compositionally awkward...I would get lower and take a few more steps to the left and make the creek a more leading line than it is...

Very nice. Perhaps a bit dark.

A somber winter day doesn't feel very wonderland-like. Still it makes me want to be there, possibly snowshoeing past this brook.

Critique Club

First impression: Warm, cozy, eggnog and rum, all while smelling pine. You captured the emotion well.

Comp: I happen to like it, although I can see why a couple of the comments referenced a tight feeling. But, as is, the composition draws my eye to the tree then across to door, before exploring the snow and trees.

Color: Good, but the white is not white, and you forgot to desat the area of the house just to the left of the tree

Overall quite nice, I gave it a 7 during voting (not handed out lightly!), but to be honest if I saw the missed areas of the house I would have scored it a 5. ;) I consider the processing part of the artwork, just a slight ding to an otherwise peaceful and warm photograph. I do believe it would have scored higher with whiter snow.

Congrats on the high finish! I enjoyed looking through your website.

Cheers!

Pretty. Needs a statement or destination maybe. The creek leads us, but to where?
