Extreme indeed. And well captured.

That really does look extreme, great effort getting out there in those conditions to capture it!

Does not appeal too much too me. I feel the hue you selected during post processing is the issue. I feel a straight B&W will probably do better for me. 5

That it is....Which camera endures this...I want one..but then again I need a new body myself that could bear such extreme weather. harshness of the conditions portrayed very well but the pic needs something extra. To little to look at for me.

Real nice vibe here. Definitely gets us into the photo and into the weather. I'm left longing for a foreground object to push it over the top but very well done regardless. 8

Maybe a little too extreme.

looks freeeeezing!

Very effective photo in giving the viewer a feeling of cold, and gloomy weather. While it isnt the typical eye candy of DPC, this is still a very good photo.
