I am delighted to see this exquisite shot on the Home page every day, and have to keep coming to look at it full screen. Just incredible, and a joy to look at.
Congratulations!

Thank you all for liking my photo. I was determined to find some snow for this shot so I got in the car and drove to Snoqualmie Pass, east of Seattle. I hit some very thick fog and could barely read the highway signs so not wanting to go any further, I pulled off on the next road where I saw a sign to Alpenthal ski area. I saw this amazing creek as I was driving up the snowy road. A lot of you commented on this being a nice b & w shot, in fact, it is living color. It was very foggy. Thank you again -- I got my first ribbon! |

A lovely scene. I really like the composition on this. The tree taking up the right side of the frame, and the 'path' down the middle are very strong. |

Absolutely beautiful! I especially love the mist in the distance... so atmospheric. It's just perfect. I can't fault it, and I love looking at it. I have to give it 10. |

Looks like a classic greeting card shot. I wish the tips of te first 3 trees on the left were just a tad darker and more distinct, but the rest of the trees fade perfectly. Would also look great run through a "painting" filter.
This is apparently not the same Rocky Creek where I've taken some photos... |

Like a post card. Very nice. I really like how the snow coveres everything and makes the tree branches droop. Normally, I'm not fond of the blown out white sky, but I think it works in this shot. It's a foggy kind of look, and I think it fits with the overall effect of the shot. The angle and framing/cropping are really good. Focus and clarity are great as well. Great job. Good luck in the challenge. |

This is beautiful and so well in focus. I love how you have cropped it making a frame for the creek. I'll take your word that there is a creek down there. I would love to see this in color also - there greenery coming thru the snow. I'd give this an 8 easily. PTL |

Beautiful! I was hoping for a similar snowstorm here for this challenge, but it didn't happen. The snow on the trees is just great -- way to go! |

I love the trees fading into the fog in the background...beautiful effect. But (eek) the big tree in the foreground disturbs me...feels like it's blocking my view of something incredible. |

challenge met. i really like how the trees seem to be fading into the background ... as if they are going on forever. truly w/out the hand of man! i also like the contrast between the dark rocks and trees and the white snow, you have achieved a very good tonal range here w/out blowing anything out. the only small criticism i have (and that's not even part of the photo and just personal taste) is the small white border. i feel it should be larger or not there at all. it also somehow looks wider at the bottom than on the sides (optical illusion, i'm sure). overall, nice entry! |

Beautiful, this looks like a painting. Love the way there is no obvious intrusion of man, no footsetps and everything is perfect. Great job! definitely fits the challenge, and I like the receding lines of the trees and the way you put this in black and white. It's a classic! Only thing I would say is that the top left looks a little light... not really a lot of definition there but that could have been caused by the weather, or that may have been what you were trying to achieve. -9 Great Job! |

Gorgeous shot, love the black and white. Very moody, mysterious and cold. Wouldn't want to live there I don't think. 10 |

Oh how beautiful! North country...I miss it. This looks like the Adirondacks. You did a wonderful job of capturing the magic. The only thing I'd do differently is to have the clearing (stream bed?) off center, on a diagonal I think....just a personal preference. It's a beauty! |
