 Stopped at the local winery & spotted these trees all "decorated" with ice.
It is a HDR image of 3 images (0, -.5, -1), not a whole lot of adjustments in PS.

Very much like a Christmas card! Watch the HDR halos around the trees though.

There is some noticeable haloing and sensor dust spots that I can see. Those are the detractors to me. Other then that, I think it's a perfectly delightful photo that still deserves an 8.

The processing is a little too strong here, there are really strong haloes around the trees.

not sure exactly what this is missing, i like everything; the color the contrast the whole capture itself. maybe its the crop or the angle, i just feel the scene isnt quite captured at the angle of its full potential

Looks like a holiday card - it's just missing Happy Holidays at the top. Nicely shot.

I'd have liked to see some of the icicles really close up with the rest of the view in the background - nice though.

Gorgeous - I especially like how the tree on the left is leaning into the frame ever so slightly. Great color and light throughout, too.
