Effective use of what I assume to be IR. I first thought this could have been an ice storm - then I saw the plants in the foreground. I like the curvature in the tracks. Nice shot.

This is cool. It has a soft light sort of fell and the ir is great.

I'm not a big fan of IR (but I'm a minority) but I do like the almost fairy-tale quality of this. The switch in the foreground makes the composition for me.

Hey! How'd all that snow get on the branches but not on the ground?! Oh wait, that's one of those funny looking IR filter thingees. :D Sorry, not really a fan of IR, but those that enjoy it should like this one. Good luck.
