Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi Flasher!

I really like snow and ice winter scenes and I think that they can make terrific landscape shots as well. In my humble opinion, this particular image is slightly weak for a landscape photo. You have 'captured' a landscape with your shot, but my mind is looking for something slightly more dramatic with higher impact. Maybe a wider-scale scene with some more 'land' showing here would create that impact.

The lighting here creates some nice shadow for your shot as well. The shadow areas contain a bit of a 'blue' cast... possibly caused by a polarizing filter? Not completely sure about that but... when this happens, you can often correct it by desaturating the blue/cyan channels in photoshop :) I think that could improve this image just a bit as well.

Keep up the great work :)

I might have placed the sage a little lower but leaving the horizon where its at. By changing the angle at which you shot this The colors are fantastic as well as the shadows. 7
