great vision to see this, it really looks like a firework and makes me want to look at it some more, which for a flower shot and my own personal tastes say alot. :) An excellent FS image! 9

Lovely, Jeanne!! I really like this! Simple and sweet and depicts that first snowfall very well. Processing looks nice - minimal and realistic.

With a dSLR, don't be afraid to oversharpen at first. I know I always leave things less sharp than most. Also, shoot RAW plus a jpeg. The camera can do that, and you can set the "processing" amount you want for the jpeg. That way you can see what a P&S equivalent would be, then play with the RAW file to see what more you can do to it.

Have fun!

Great abstract quality to this. Your unusual POV makes this shot work.
