Very nice work you have applied to this photo,the light and shadows are very nicely balanced in this rework.Plus I do like how the shadows of the trees Lead you eyes to the far background of this photo to the gap in the trees to that lovely looking sky.thus is great in black and white.
Wonderful B&W tonal range in this from the very light to the very dark. Snow always looks worse to me in B&W - if you put sunshine and blue sky with it looks more innocuous but this is what it feels like.
Oh goodness, did you have to remind me of what's just around the bend for us, yuck. Wonderful B/W for the challenge, really like the shadows playing across the the white stuf and the bright spot above the spill way
I love this Sandi. The tones are wonderful and so are the contraststs. The long shadows of the trees makes the image come to Life. Excellent work! Save&Faved
