I don't like the dull colors.
But it's a good portrait in all other aspects. Good light.

such a beautiful photo. This would look excelent as one of those black and white photos with hand color added to it. Obviously, not allowed by DPC, but something to think about outside of the challenge. I love the angle and framing/cropping. your focus and clarity are great as well. The lighting is also very nice. good soft lighting. a very pretty girl. You can tell her that she (and you) got a high score from me this week. great shot. Good luck in the challenge.

INITIAL RESPONSE: Nice original Christmas shot. Probably nt technically easy. The pole on the left disturb me a little. NIce tones (though I do not know how to qualify the color).

COMPOSITION-CONTENT - Very nice composition and framing. ANimals are perfectly position to balance the picture. Perfect positioning, the circle of light being in the bottom part preventing the picture to look 'centered'. The pole bother me ... a little by itself but also because it is very close to the animal hean, though not touching it. However, somehow it brings depth to the picture ... probably would have prefered it on the right part (digital processing as a try).

CAMERA WORK-TECHNICAL- Perfect exposure .... light are not too 'blown' thought very bright , nice details in the snow ... good perimeter of light. I would say very very good exposition.

DIGITAL PROCESSING - TECHNICAL - Did you bring the tones through processing ? If yes very good job. Not too oversharpen to my taste

MY OPINION ON THE PHOTO - I like the picture, the atmosphere a lot ... outside dochalleneg I would try without the pole and with the pole on the right (if you're not agains moving things in your picture).
Very good picture.
I would have like taking that one myself ! Congratulations.

This truly is a gift. Wonderful composition. Very simple but yet very nice. Bravo :-) Light is just a little too harsh for my taste.
