Nice photo, I understand what you mean about the white spots, though. Short of wiping the lens down before the shot and making sure the camera is acclimated to the environment before shooting, not sure what else you could ahve done under the circumstances. I like the "imperfections" though, as they show you attempted to capture the mood of the subject in it's raw form. Most pulitzer prize winning photos are not perfect, rather they capture the subject and framing at the right moment to show the reality of the image. Lens hood may have helped also.

I think the spots enhance the photo. They help to show the cold dampness of the scene. Great job!

nice framing with the trees , and the mist is kind of eerie feeling. Good work...

This is excellent. I like to judge a wallpaper on how long it is likely to remain on my screen each time I fire up. This one would keep me happy for weeks!!! Well done.

If you like this shot I hope to show this scene throughout the four seasons . Thanks for the nice comments. Ron.
