This is really nice. Very sharp, and the touch of backlighting makes it pop. Well done.

One of my favorites. The high contrast makes it crisp & clean; it feels so refreshing.

This is a really great image, the exposure is dead on and the composition is really nice. I do have to say that I don't really get the feel of silence though. I hear the sound of crunching snow, perhaps a honk. It's really pleasant, but not silent. Great image, though!

ok, someone on a forum just went back and review and rescored. So I'm doing the same thing. I really liked this the first time around, but I decided that I really, really liked it this time. I'm wondering if it would have been better waiting for them to go by and getting the bench out of the shot... I keep going back and forth on that...

Really beautiful shot! The sky is outstanding and the shadows and highlights on the snow are really fabulous. It certainly sets the tone for the shot and the idea of being icy cold...as though a snow storm is about to set in. Great editing too!

An elegant tree, and I suspect a long exposure to give the smoothness of the snow (blowing snow, maybe?) and the sky. If I may pick one small nit - just a WEE bit more space on the right to get in that last bit of branch. But overall a very pleasing shot indeed.

Excellent exposure. As I understand and experienced so many times, shooting snow is very challenging. This one executed perfectly. One of my 10 in this challenge. Good luck.

I didn't leave a comment but gave this a 7. Thought is was nice and quirky.

Lovely image, Michelle! You should try some farm-fresh eggs... they're so much better than these 'water-down' kind. If you can find them, try them. :)
