 Our wonderful blue spruce. He waits patiently all year until he gets to really shine. The recent snowfall makes him magical.

I don't suppose this will score very high, but I like it, and that's what counts, right? Right?

Rotate, crop, unsharp mask, save for DPC. Easy!

Nice, a 6.4! Glad everyone saw the beauty that I do. Yes, it was a wicked snowstorm that passed through. I figured three hours of shovelling the stuff, I might as well capture it before the wind took it away.

That must have been a good snow storm to leave the tree so nicely sculptored in snow. Nice shot.

the tree is a cool subject, but the background is cluttered and unattractive
