neat shot. I think I would have liked to see a more distinct focal point. i realize we are supposed to look at the gate as it is the darkest object in the frame but there is so much to look at that my eyes kind of get distracted. I will say that sometimes it is difficult to expose for snow and you have done a fabulous job with this. I think the clarity on the photo is great as well. Overall a nice shot.
It's a nice interesting scene, Penny. A bit overexposed though, which is very easy to do when you have pure black and pure white.
It can be corrected by applying a bit of negative Gamma (Brightness).
The Blue address sign is an unnecessary distraction, and easily Cloned over with snow.
I really like it.
