Hi Evelynn,
An excellent scene, like Christmas all over again :) I'm not sure how to photograph snow, but Gert (Ellis49) knows and was telling somebody else, but I forget where I saw the note! There is a little burn in the whites but as you say, the tonal contrasts are so strong that it's very tricky indeed. I think you've captured a great image, a nice composition. My only nit would be that the DOF is shallow and the branches in the foreground are OOF.
Regards,
Adrian

Hi Evelynn!
Magnificent and beautiful landscapes. POV, DOF, colors, composition and framing are wonderful. Snow and trees superb. TFS. Congratulations...

Hi Evelynn,
winter-wonderland, I love your "cold" shots very much - but also hope it will be warm soon.
Thanks and greetings from the cold Germany

Hi Evelynn

A littled rushed this moring, so just a quick visit. Enough time to see that this is a well composed shot, with very good light and details. :-)

Hi Evelynn,
I looked at all three, and I really like them all. I think #1 is the best though. It is perfect. This is OOF on the foreground and sightly OE. These are difficult due to the broad range of tones and light. They are very beautiful scenes, and brought backfond memories of when I lived in Colorado.

I like the juxtaposition of that little tree amidst the giant firs, and all that snow in the front. It makes that little tree look very vulnerable. Another beautiful winter scene.
TFS, Evelynn. : )

Hi Evelynn,
I know you are experimenting with your camera settings, on which I can't advise you at all. But, I do see what you are trying to accomplish, and so far it looks good. (I wish I had some good weather to make photos and experiment with my camera settings) I do agree with some of the critique you've already received and just want to say that I do like the photo a lot, but probably would have tried a slightly different POV.
Thanks,
Niek
