We have been getting quite a bit of snow this Winter. After one of the big storms, I was hoping for some Sun as the snow was sticking to the trees. Sure enough we got some the next morning. I zoomed out to an area I know would have some nice images to be captured. This is one of them.

This is very cool (pun intended) Jody. I like the placement of the trees and the diagonal the middle tree's limbs make to the left. Light on the scene is just right to me saying its crisp and cold but not overly contrasty. Well done.

Another gorgeous image from you Jody. Love the feel from this one, and the exposure control is great. Top work.

The light is terrific in this one. I love the golden glow on the trees in the foreground and the nice separation of all of those snowy branches.

I can feel the cold from here. I also like the diagonal lines and the sharp contrast that screams winter. I might have considered cloning out the center branch at the lower edge of the frame to give more smooth snow at the tree's base.

This is gorgeous. The warm brown tree trunks provide a nice graphic element to contrast against the snow.
