 What a wonderful start in this day (it's 6 a.m. where I live)- thank you for your votes and kind comments - my first Blue!

This little birch alley is only a 10 minutes walk from my home and when I read about abstract landscape and snow was falling I knew this would be the spot.

Some of you mentioned the glassy look - that was the reason why I picked this shot, actually I liked that most myself.

Thanks again

But not in creativity and knowledge and proficiency!
Plus your ribbons are from a time when you had to be better than 300 competitors...
