Well you already know that it showed up too small here, so there is no use beating a dead horse.
Your composition is wonderful and follows the classic rule of thirds. I love the feel of the one isolated tree,and it is silhouetted beautifully.
The sky is wonderfully dramatic...deep and forboding. Nice!
OVer all I like this. Keep up the good work.

This is stunning! I love the shadows here, that add a lot of drama to this pristine scene.
The sunlight adds quite a bit of warmth, in contrast to the blue/cold shadows....very nice.
The smooth texture of the snow is very evident, as well as the gentle moguls.
The composition is different. I would have tried to capture the tree tops, or at least the top of the evergreen. But...I think your way is better. It is more unique than mine would have been. Very nice image. I love it!

Although this is a very familiar scene to me, having lived many years in rural upstate New York, it has a surrealistic quality to it.
There are many hay rolls, yet it is a simple composition and very appealing.
The coloring and subtle shading is fantastic. It is sharpened to the point of bringing the texture out in the field beautifully.
I can see the point some have made about the glare in the upper corner perhaps being distracting. BUT....it sort of adds a little heat to the image...making it even more surrealistic.
I like it...this is very artsy. Keep up the good work!!!
