Thought this was quite lovely - I can imagine myself walking the path in all that frozen stillness, just the quiet crunch of icy gravel from my footsteps.
Really like this image; it's light and airy feeling - has that kind of fairy woods feel to it. I like the composition and how the eyes are directed right down the path to the lone person walking there.
I like the image overall...having the guy in there adds perspective
sign on the side is distracting, but I guess you didn't have your 'sign pulling out equipment' with you that day! :)
nice...7
