Nice composition, but it's a little too gray for me. A little more contrast or better lighting might have helped.

Nice sky. The snow is a little too dark (almost gray) though.

Isolated, but so peaceful.....

Nice leading line with the path however I think the image is underexposed. The snow looks a bit too grey. Snow will fool the cameras meter so you need to dial in some exposure compensation. For this amount of white in the picture you could probably get away with +1 to +1.5.

I wish the path was better defined, have to stray to see it. Post-processing issue? Easy to blow out those whites I suppose.

interesting subject. Wish the snow had been a little deeper - the scene would have been more ethereal. Good composition for subject.

I used to walk home from school in the snow, up hills both ways....


Nice dreary photo. The conversion truly brings the cold into your bones.

I think this needs some levels adjustments to really bring out the whites. At the moment everything seems a bit grey. When in snow it's sometimes best to overexpose by a stop or 2, because the camera will measure the snow as 50% grey and expose for that.

Okay- not totally sure what post processing you used. On my monitor, the snow is coming out too grey to be appealing. I'd suggest calibrating your monitor if you see the snow as white. If this was the effect you were going for, then it just doesn't hit me quite right. I like the composition a good bit, but there's not enough contrast in the shot. 6

I like this, but I think it's missing a focal point. It would be great if there were a single bird, or animal or a bare tree in the background to draw your eye to it. I might do a single hue adjustment and "unblack" the snow to make it whiter.
