Just perfect.

It’s beautiful. Not sure I’d change a thing. But maybe a bit of darkening of the background, the lower rh corner is a touch brigher than the rest. But honestly it doesn’t matter, it’s fine how it is.

I like how the bright branches are in the upper half-ish of the image, they’re lifting up, not being grounded. It floats. I also like the bit of greenery in the background, just a touch of a different texture to keep the eyes interested.

Just lovely. :heart:

Hi Peter,
This is flat out gorgeous! The warm light kissing the tops of those trees contrasts beautifully the the rest of the cooler blue tones in this woodland scene. The large version has a lot of details to savor with all of those snow covered limbs filling up the frame. I only have one small suggestion; and this is being real nit picky; but I could see cropping that larger tree poking in along the left edge of the frame as it does catch my eye a little. Beautifully done.

I really love that warm kiss of light against the cool snow and trees.

I love this. That spot of warmth against the otherwise coolness is fantastic. Really nicely done.

Peter, this is a great catch with that warm spot of sunlight surrounded by cool blues.

This is very nice Peter.
Love the color contrast here.

A great example of how photography is all about light. That kiss of sunlight, surrounded and contrasted by the cool shade, is an eye grabber.

This looks like frozen flames. I love how the warm branches contrast with the cold frozen branches surrounding them. The texture throughout is fantastic. You had remarkable light
I love the pine tree in the URC catching and holding some snow. Sensational image, Peter! I wouldn’t change anything.
