It's incredible the amount of snow that one little bare tree can accumulate. :)PJ

Just another magnificent photo PJ. Your number of posts has gone down but the quality has remained constant. You are a artist. Love the B/W look with the snow and trees and "boom" that beautiful sky jumps out out you. I can tell you've put some time and thought into this one. Love the title. Another winner.

I always love the look of the trees right after the snowfall and it seems it was quite a lovely day following one. I'm sure you got a lot more snow than we did. This is beautiful.

Snow scenes are always tricky as you want to retain texture. You did this very well imo, along with your usual good eye for composition. Another fine piece PJ!

What a beautiful shot, reminds me of how magical it is to be in the snow, but yet, I am glad I am not living in it anymore! I like rain, you don't have to shovel it away, lol. Great image.
