WOW.. you did a great job on the lighting. This image makes a nice gothic desktop as it has such a dark and morbid feel. I really like it and your image title suits it very well... this picture has something of a death related attitude.
At first glance, that snow looked like sand dunes ! A beautiful & creative shot, I really like the shadows against the snow too. It has a gentle & subdued ambiance to it, just what I like. The type of image that makes you look closer to discover all it's secrets.
The sparkling of the snow here really caught my eye, and then the lovely silhouettes of the grasses...the shadows enhance the whole thing...its a very cold, sharp and good photo!!
Nice work!
