Those look like frosted chocolate cake to me! Cool effect. Perhaps a play in the "curves" dialogue might give this a bit more punch and energy. Then again, perhaps you don't want punch and energy in this shot!
I'm wondering if you did a Sepia colour on this? An interesting take on a snow photo, but I have to admit I like the starkness of regular white snow. I do like the combination of those heavy duty rock formations and the evergreens. Texture is great.Verena
