Love the different degrees of snow on the road, great composition with the tall tree gracing the left border.

Nice duotone choice. I like the detail and the image is sharp. Overall, the image is very easy on the eyes.

The only thing I'm not to crazy about is the angle. I'm wondering how this would look if you shot it from an angle closer to the ground. That way the detail in the snow would be more prevalent and thus be more of a starting focus point to lead your eyes from the bottom to the top of this nice image. As it is now my eyes want to go straight to the middle.

The perspective, the leading lines and the big plain sky all look good.

Nicely controlled exposure, and with great detailing and a certain sense of composition. Who's to know, but the impression is that it might have been more successful framed to put the vanishing point more to a strong area of frame - this would have allowed the leftmost tree more 'breathing space' against the frame also. I like the technical proficiency of it, but am left a little cold by the subject - although it has something to it, for sure.

Crisp with nice details. Sort of simple in a way. I like it.

well balanced all around - nice eye for interesting shots - the color is effective also - black and blue.
