Liked this very much in the challenge. Thought of something similar but not with the park. Then I picked something else and got slammed big time. Oh well. Be on the look out for the next Philly DPC get together. |

Thank you for all your wonderful comments. I wasn't sure how this would do, and I know very little of Ansel Adams. I did some research at the start of the challenge to expose myself to more than the few pictures I had seen hanging on walls in my doctor's office, etc. So I was just going by what I quickly observed about him in a short amount of time. Personally, I like the way this photo came out, Ansel Adams style or not. |

What a beautifully presented scene of the 'ordinary'. It has that serene, tangible silence about it that I love when snow falls and dampens sound, while delivering an uplifting sense of abandonment of rules & regulations. Rare snow (as here in London) is one of those rare instant changes that society experiences which can so often change everything in a short space of time. I love it - and this could pass for an Adams due to it's good tonal range and excellent exposure. Good luck. |

A great atmosphere here. One slight criticism would be that the bench on the right looks a little 'soft'. |

This is a beautiful "print" I bet. I wish you coudl have gotten a touch more luminosity out of the snow, it shoudl have been doable. Not much, just a tad. An interesting take ont he challenge. |

Looks more like Alfred Stieglitz! It's a gorgeous shot, but doesn't have that AA look to it. 7
My second pass on this photo and I'm feeling a bit more generous because this is such a cool shot, I'm bumping this up to an 8. Also selected as favorite. |

The lights, the snow, the contrast of dark branches and white snow, the empty benches....Excellent! 10. |

This is beautiful. I can't vote, but if I could I would give it a 10. I'm sure you'll finish in the top ten photos. |
