Very well deserved finish. Glad you took it all! Although, I am amazed you got a few one and two votes. Always makes me wonder, what these people are thinking!
Especially with such a fantastic image! Good job and keep up the great work! Ryan....

Sorry about the 2 (not a 2 anymore). Finger slipped as I was looking through them so now I have to vote to fix it. Excellent work. Stars are very well done and the reflection takes it up another notch. Cute scene that had holiday card written all over it. Nice work.

Oh, this is too adorable. The lighting on the hills is so wonderful and wintery, and the reflection of the moon and wolf on the "lake", splendid.
