Pretty snow. The grouping of the trees is nice, compositionally. I think the drop shadow border is a distraction.

This looks like a christmas card :-) Well done. The cloud formation looks awesome. Well captured.

This is nice enough. Could have done without the skilift as it mars my idea of looking at wilderness. Are dropshadows legal? (just curious). 5 Journey

Good shot. I like the frame. It gives your picture depth.

Oh is this nice. Lift in the background.....cool. Just fresh, clean, crisp. Nice shot.

A very nice photograph. Great composition.

Perfect, I love your photo.

I do love winter - nice composition - the land is going down to the right, the trees are rise up to the right. Wish the chair lift weren't haunting the picture on the left - unless it stood out in an interesting way like someone in a red jacket...Otherwise you could just crop the left hand side off.

The title is a bit confusing, did you take this shot in winter?
04/21/2003 07:15:38 AM
Brrrrr

Nice photo,Illegal border!

There appears to be a dead tree trunk between the two tallest evergreens here. That trunk is quite distracting. I suggest maybe changing the angle to hide it or choosing another group of trees to photograph. Also, the ski lift is visible in the background. I like this capture, but I find the cropping too narrow. I'd like to see more of the background.
